Design and Specifications of the 1964 Quarter
The 1964 Quarter holds a significant place in American numismatic history. It was the last year of 90% silver composition for circulating quarters, marking the end of an era. This coin was minted in large quantities due to a nationwide coin shortage, leading to an extended production period that continued into 1965 despite the date on the coin.
The design features the Washington Quarter, first introduced in 1932 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. Its continued use in 1964 reflects the enduring popularity and respect for the first U.S. President.

Rarity Factors and Value Drivers
The condition of 1964 Quarters significantly impacts their value, especially for collectors seeking high-grade specimens. While common in circulated grades, these coins become increasingly scarce in Mint State conditions, particularly MS65 and above.
Luster is a crucial factor, with coins retaining their original mint luster commanding premium prices. Strike quality is generally good for this year, but exceptionally well-struck examples are highly sought after. Toning can also add value, with attractively toned specimens often fetching higher prices among collectors.

Market Demand: High, due to silver content and historical significance
The silver content of 1964 Quarters provides a base value, making them popular among both collectors and silver investors. This intrinsic value often exceeds the face value, even for worn specimens.
Historical significance as the last year of 90% silver composition adds numismatic interest. High-grade examples (MS67 and above) are rare and highly valuable due to the difficulty in preserving these coins in pristine condition over decades.
While major errors are uncommon, any significant mint errors or die varieties could substantially increase a coin's value to specialized collectors.
