Washington Quarter series: Originally a one-year commemorative for Washington's 200th birthday - Congress kept it permanently. Silver through 1964, clad 1965–present. The classic "no mintmark = Philadelphia" rule was broken in 1980 when the P mintmark was added to circulating quarters for the first time. Designed by John Flanagan. Struck 1932–present.
The Silver Coinage Act (1964–1965): The Coinage Act of 1965 stripped silver from the dime and quarter entirely and reduced the half dollar to 40% silver. Skyrocketing silver prices and the strain on US silver reserves forced the change. 1964 was the last full-silver year for circulating US coinage - collectors mark the year as the modern silver cutoff.
Use the grade ladder, pricing confidence, and melt floor together before making a buying decision.
