1946-S Washington Quarter MS-67 PCGS
In 1946, the San Francisco Mint struck a limited run of just over four million Washington quarters, making this particular issue a compelling piece of mid-century American numismatics. Crafted from 90 percent silver, this coin contains 0.1788 troy ounces of precious metal. Finding an example preserved in such an exceptional state of preservation, graded Mint State 67, offers a rare glimpse into the crisp details of the original strike. The obverse features the familiar left-facing profile of George Washington. Surrounding his portrait are the clear inscriptions of the word LIBERTY above, the national motto IN GOD WE TRUST to his left, and the 1946 date below. On the reverse, a majestic eagle stands with its wings fully spread, anchoring a powerful design. The inscriptions on this side include the country of origin, the traditional Latin motto E Pluribus Unum, and the denomination of QUARTER DOLLAR. The distinct 'S' mint mark is also present, denoting its origin from the historic San Francisco facility.
