Additional Description: The 1943 and 1944 U.S. Silver Quarters were minted at the height of World War II, a time when American coinage quietly served the home front and the war effort alike. Struck in 90% silver, these quarters bore John Flanagan’s enduring portrait of George Washington, a steady image in an unsteady world. Though there were no changes in design or composition, their historical context sets them apart—used in everyday transactions as Americans rationed goods, purchased war bonds, and supported a global fight for democracy.
