Collectible coins refer to coins that are sought after by numismatists for their historical significance, rarity, condition, or unique features. In the United States, quarters have been produced in various designs and series, with specific years and mint marks adding to their collectible value. The 1948 Philadelphia quarter is notable as it represents the first year of the Washington quarter series, which began in 1932. Collectors often seek rolls of 25 cents (quarters) from this year due to their place in American numismatic history.
