The 1963 Washington Quarter is a 25-cent coin issued by the U.S. Mint, part of the Washington series.
Made of 90% silver and 10% copper, it's a favorite among collectors for its silver content.
Uncirculated quarters can fetch higher values, especially those with an MS-63 grade or above.
The mint mark location is on the reverse, below the eagle. 'D' for Denver, 'P' for Philadelphia.
Denver-minted coins are more valuable due to lower mintage numbers compared to Philadelphia.
Proof coins, specially struck for collectors, can be worth more than regular circulation coins.
Condition is key; coins without wear and with original luster are most sought after.
Special features like double die or errors can significantly increase a coin's value.
Always consult a professional coin grading service to accurately assess your coin's value.
