“Everything you wanted to know about Washingtonquarters but were afraid to ask.” Actually, you probably weren’t afraid to ask anything about quarters (we are paraphrasing the title of another book popular a couple generations ago), but until now you were not able to find the answers in any single place. Your search stops here!

In one volume there is everything you would ever hope to know and learn about this fascinating series. Did you know that the original design was quite controversial, and some thought that the work of an inferior artist was selected? Did you know that the 1932-D quarter is far rarer in Mint State than the 1932-S, but the 1932-S has a lower mintage? Do you know why? Year by year, date by date, mintmark by mintmark, the author takes you through the series, discussing each issue in detail, based upon a lifetime of experience in the field.

The nominal cost of this book is guaranteed to multiply your enjoyment of Washington quarters and also to make you a smart buyer the next time you contemplate an item for sale. Indeed, it is probably correct to say that if you spend as much as $50 on Washington quarters in the next year, this book will pay for itself.
