Additional Description: The 1961 and 1962 U.S. Silver Quarters were struck during the final years of silver coinage, a period marked by economic confidence and continuity in American design. Each features John Flanagan’s portrait of George Washington, first introduced in 1932, and was composed of 90% silver, a standard soon to be abandoned as rising bullion prices pressured the U.S. Mint to adopt cheaper clad alternatives.
