About This Coin
The 1992 Washington Quarter is a United States quarter from the Washington Clad and Silver Proof Quarters 1965-1998 series — a late issue, 26th of 32 years in the series. In 1992, coins were struck at the Denver, San Francisco, and Philadelphia Mints with a combined mintage of 778.7 million. This ranks 8th of 32 years by total mintage, below the series median of 1.2 billion. 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. Struck after the transition from silver to clad coinage, as the Mint adapted to modern production methods and record-breaking mintages. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper center, 24.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Collectors have identified one known die variety for this date (cud). Across its variants, estimated values range from $0 to $24 depending on mint mark, grade, and strike type. A notable auction result reached $1.8K in MS67 grade at Heritage Auctions. Designed by John Flanagan.
