The Washington Quarter was first issued in 1932 to honor the 200th anniversary of George Washington’s birth. It was a key coin in the American economy during World War II, and this remarkable collection includes one Washington Silver Quarter from each of the World War II years from 1942 to 1945. Each coin was struck in .900 silver. Millions of these silver coins have been melted since World War II for the precious silver, so it becomes harder each year to assemble a complete set like this. Order now, before it’s too late!
