The 1945 Washington Quarter, produced by the Philadelphia Mint, is part of the series depicting George Washington on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. These coins are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, reflecting the U.S. Mint's standard for circulating silver coins prior to the mid-1960s. Collectors seek this coin for its historical significance, silver content, and relatively high mintage, making it a popular choice among numismatists. The Washington Quarter series began in 1932 and continues to be a significant part of American coinage.
