1941-S Washington Quarter Good/VF
In 1941, the San Francisco Mint produced a classic silver quarter that remains a fascinating study in American coinage. Struck in 90% silver, this twenty-five cent piece contains approximately 0.1788 troy ounces of precious metal, carrying the weight and texture of a bygone era. The front of the coin features a sharp profile of George Washington, facing left. This iconic portrait is accompanied by the inscriptions "IN GOD WE TRUST" and the year "1941" at the base. The design, created by John Flanagan, has become one of the most recognizable images in pocket change, yet seeing it on a vintage silver issue brings a different appreciation for the artistry. On the reverse, a powerful heraldic eagle is depicted with its wings spread wide, gripping a bundle of arrows and an olive branch beneath its talons. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" frame this national symbol, showcasing the detailed engraving work that defines the series.
