1934 Washington Quarter BU (Medium Motto)
The 1934 Washington quarter represents an early chapter in one of America's most enduring coinage series. Struck in 90% fine silver at the Philadelphia Mint, this specimen contains 0.17875 troy ounces of precious metal. Preserved in brilliant uncirculated condition, the coin retains its original luster, allowing the intricate details of its classic engraving to shine just as they did when it first left the coining press. On the obverse, the dignified profile of George Washington faces left, accompanied by the national motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" and the date 1934. This particular variety is distinguished by the medium-sized lettering of the motto, a subtle detail that fascinates numismatists. The reverse showcases a powerful heraldic eagle with its wings spread wide, gripping a bundle of arrows and an olive branch beneath its talons. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "E PLURIBUS UNUM", and "QUARTER DOLLAR" frame this iconic national symbol, completing a design created by sculptor John Flanagan.
