Additional Description: The U.S. Silver Quarters from 1942 to 1944 and 1963 to 1964 span two pivotal periods in American history—World War II and the final years of silver coinage. Struck in 90% silver, these quarters carry John Flanagan’s portrait of George Washington, a design first issued in 1932 that remained unchanged in its essential form for decades. The wartime quarters of 1942 to 1944 circulated heavily as the nation mobilized its economy, and though no changes were made to their composition, they are deeply tied to the home front’s everyday transactions and rationed life. In contrast, the 1963 and 1964 issues represent the end of an era. As silver prices rose, the U.S. Mint prepared to abandon precious metal in regular coinage, making the 1964 quarter the last circulating quarter struck in 90% silver
