The coins were initially struck using 90% silver and 10% copper, with modern coins minted after 1964 being copper and nickel alloy. This roll contains forty silver Washington Quarters, which were minted in various dates from 1932 to 1964. These coins are in excellent condition and are all graded between VG and XF. They are packaged in a roll and contain 7.15 ounces of pure silver, which is great for coin collectors, silver investors, and dealers. Washington quarter history The Washington quarter was designed to replace the Standing Liberty quarters as many people considered their design to be unsatisfactory. This was due to their low relief, which meant that the coins became easily worn. The Washington Quarter was created to celebrate the bicentennial of the 1732 birth of George Washington. There was initially plans to create a commemorative half dollar and a medal for the occasion. However, President Hoover felt that the monetary system would be harmed by doing so. It was then decided that a quarter dollar should be designed for regular issue, rather than as a commemorative coin. The Washington quarters obverse features a left-facing image of George Washington, which was created by sculptor John F. Flanagan. On its obverse is a bald eagle sitting on a branch with wings spread and a half wreath of olive branches underneath.
