1950-S Washington Quarter MS-65 PCGS
The 1950 Washington quarter, minted in San Francisco, represents a classic era of United States silver coinage. Struck with a purity of 90 percent silver, this particular specimen contains 0.17875 troy ounces of precious metal. It has been certified in Mint State 65, indicating a high level of preservation that allows the original design details to remain remarkably crisp. On the obverse, a left-facing profile of George Washington dominates the center. This portrait, created by designer John Flanagan, is accompanied by the word LIBERTY arching above, the national motto IN GOD WE TRUST positioned to the left, and the 1950 date below. Turning to the reverse, an eagle with outstretched wings serves as the central motif. The design includes the traditional Latin motto E Pluribus Unum, the country of origin, and the twenty-five cent denomination. Positioned below the eagle, the distinct S mint mark indicates its origin from the San Francisco Mint.
