Quarter Dollar Coin
The United States Mint honors our nation’s presidents by issuing $1 coins featuring their images in the order that they served. The program began in 2007 with Presidents Washington, Adams, Jefferson, and Madison.
Note: In December 2011, Secretary of the Treasury Timothy F. Geithner directed that the United States Mint suspend minting and issuing circulating Presidential $1 Coins. Regular circulating demand for the coins will be met through the Federal Reserve Bank’s existing inventory of circulating coins minted prior to 2012.
The Presidential $1 Coin Act (Public Law 109-145) seeks to revitalize the design of United States coins and return circulating coinage to its position as an object of aesthetic beauty in its own right. Accordingly, the Presidential $1 Coins feature larger, more dramatic artwork, as well as edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting or issuance, “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and the mint mark.
The Bicentennial quarter was one of many circulating commemorative coins issued during the 1970s. Ahr designed the reverse image. His design was chosen through an open contest held by the Treasury in 1973. Both the Kennedy half dollar and Eisenhower dollar also received temporary Bicentennial reverse designs for 1976. Therefore, none of.
From 2007 to 2016, the Mint issued four Presidential $1 Coins per year, each with a common reverse design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. The composition of the Presidential $1 Coins is identical to that of the Sacagawea Golden Dollar and the Native American $1 Coins.

- I love the 5 oz ATB Quarter series 5 state coins each year from 2010 -2020 and one coin in 2021. I would like to see it come to an end and move on to another 5 oz silver series/denomination.
- The obverse side of the coin features the same design as other Washington quarters. The US minted the 1776-1976 quarter with no mint mark and also the 1776-1976 D quarter, 1776-1976 S proof quarter, 1776-1976 S silver quarter, and 1776-1976 S silver proof quarter. Note: The mint mark, when present, can be found on the obverse side of the coin.

Quarter Dollar Coin Worth
Nearly 8 million Barber quarters were minted in 1915, which is a fairly strong number as compared to the mintages of the few previous years. While the 1915-S did see a mintage of less than 1 million, that issue is not considered anything scarcer than a “better date.” The 1915 Philadelphia and Denver issues are decently common and, all around, 1915 is an affordable year for coin collectors looking to pick up well-circulated examples of Barber quarters from the year.
Quarter Dollar Coin 1974 Value
Here’s a breakdown of mintages and values of 1915 Barber quarters:
1915 – 3,480,000; $13
1915-D – 3,694,000; $13
1915-S – 704,000; $16
1915 proof – 450; $925
*Values are for coins in a grade of Good-4, unless otherwise noted.
Perhaps the most noteworthy bit from 1915 regarding Barber quarters was the striking of the final proofs for the series. Proof coinage, which had been produced in small numbers anyway, was retired for all denominations during the mid-1910s, and would not resume until 1936, when the era of the modern proof coins began.
The Barber quarter was designed by U.S. Mint Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber and was first produced in 1892. Production of the series would continue until 1916.
