Junk 90% Silver Quarters | $1 Face Value

This lot delivers $1 in face value of 90% silver Washington quarters, four coins struck by the United States Mint between 1932 and 1964. Junk silver quarters sit in the sweet spot of constitutional silver: large enough to handle easily, small enough to stay divisible, and recognized instantly by anyone who has ever made change, which keeps them in steady demand with stackers and barter-minded buyers.

Key Features:

• Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper
• $1 face value equals four quarters containing roughly 0.715 troy ounces of pure silver
• Obverse: left-facing bust of George Washington with LIBERTY and IN GOD WE TRUST
• Reverse: a heraldic eagle perched on a bundle of arrows above olive branches

The obverse carries John Flanagan’s left-facing portrait of George Washington, adopted in 1932 to mark the bicentennial of the first president’s birth and based on a 1786 bust by sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdon. LIBERTY arcs above the head, IN GOD WE TRUST sits in the left field beside the neckline, and the date anchors the bottom rim.

The reverse presents a heraldic eagle with wings spread wide, perched on a horizontal bundle of arrows with two olive branches crossed beneath, war and peace balanced in one design. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM stack across the top, and QUARTER DOLLAR runs along the bottom. Congress pulled silver from the quarter after 1964, capping the silver Washington series at thirty-three years.

These quarters come from circulation and show honest wear, with full rims, readable dates, and smoothing across Washington’s cheek and the eagle’s breast. Dates and mint marks are of our choosing and will vary by lot. Each quarter measures 24.3 mm across, and coins ship loose or in flips depending on quantity.

Silver quarters remain one of the most practical ways to hold small, spendable units of real silver. Order your $1 face value lot of 90% silver quarters from Hero Bullion today and put four pieces of pre-1965 America in your stack.
