A Collecting Icon that Kicked Off a New Era of Coins: The 1932 Washington Quarter P/D/S Set

George Washington is considered the father of our great nation...and when you look at all his accomplishments, it's easy to see why! He began as a militia commander during the French and Indian War and grew to become the leader of our nation as the Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. After helping us win our independence, he was elected as the first President of the United States!

The Washington Quarter was released in 1932 on the 200th anniversary of George Washington’s birth. At the time the coin was meant to be a one-year-only issue honoring our great nation’s first Commander-in-Chief, but due to overwhelming popularity Congress authorized the design to be continued indefinitely. The public LOVED the Washington Quarter and its simple yet beautiful design.

We spent the last year searching high and low and are finally able to offer the stunning first year of issue 1932 Washington Quarter P/D/S Mint-Mark collection!

The Start of a Modern Day Collecting Frenzy!

The Washington Quarter has always been popular…but it went to another level when the US Mint chose the quarter denomination for its ground-breaking 50 State Quarter program. The State Quarter Series lasted for over 11 years (the 50 State and 6 Territories) and introduced hundreds of millions of new collectors to the world of United States coin collecting. In essence, a larger portion of MODERN coin collecting within the United States owes its existence to the popularity of President Washington’s quarter!

Do not miss out on your chance to get the 1st year Washington quarters that became a staple of United States numismatics!

Did you know? Originally Congress wanted to put Washington on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar for the year, but ended up displacing, and then replacing, the Standing Liberty Quarter with our beloved Washington Quarter we use today!
