  • This coin was first produced in 1975 in celebration of the 200th anniversary of the independence of the United States. The coin was minted in the years 1975 and 1976 and carried the dual dates of 1776-1976. During the release of the Bicentennial coinage, no coins of this denomination carried the single date of 1975 or 1976.
  • 'Missouri’s forthcoming bicentennial is a celebration of greatness. Missouri’s greatness is the result of seemingly ordinary people who excel in their work, who rise to meet an occasion, or whose creativity sparks innovation.

What This Coin Looks Like (Obverse, Reverse, Mint Mark Location, Special Features, etc.):
The bicentennial Washington quarter features a 1776-1976 date on the obverse and a colonial drummer on the reverse of the coin to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the United States of America. This coin was produced in both years of 1975 through 1976 so there were no 1975 coins.
This particular version is the special 40% silver Mint Edition of the Bicentennial Quarter. Proof silver coins with a mirror-like surface were produced as depicted in the image above. In addition: A business strike silver uncirculated edition of this coin was also produced (does not have the mirror-like surface). An example of the uncirculated 40% silver edition bicentennial quarter is depicted below in the example image:
