Additional Description:  The 1964 U.S. Silver Quarter marks the final year that American quarters were struck for circulation in 90% silver, closing a chapter that had endured since the nation’s earliest coinage. Bearing John Flanagan’s enduring portrait of George Washington, the design remained unchanged, but the context had shifted—rising silver prices and mounting production costs led to the Coinage Act of 1965, which ended silver use in most U.S. coins. Struck in large numbers during a time of economic transition and growing global influence, the 1964 quarter is both common and historically significant.
