Additional Description: The 1944 and 1945 U.S. Silver Quarters were minted at the height of World War II, a time when American coinage was both a practical tool of commerce and a quiet witness to global upheaval. Struck in 90% silver, these quarters feature John Flanagan’s portrait of George Washington, unchanged since its 1932 debut but made more poignant by the historical moment. Circulating widely on the home front, they passed through the hands of citizens living under rationing, war bonds, and collective sacrifice.
