Description
The 1937 Washington Quarter - Doubled Die Obverse is a quarter produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Washington Silver Quarters 1932-1964 series. The obverse features George Washington facing left, based on a 1786 bust by Jean-Antoine Houdon and the reverse displays an eagle perched on a bundle of arrows with olive branches below. Branch mint production continued. Die varieties exist at several mints. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $292 to $11K depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% silver, 10% copper, weighing 6.3 grams, 24.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #95803.
Rarity Notes
Scarce variety. The doubled die obverse is found on a small percentage of the total 1937 production of 19,696,000 pieces. Actively sought by variety collectors. Premium examples with strong, clear doubling command significantly higher prices than standard issues.
