WASHINGTON, July 6, 2026 — The United States Mint (Mint) at Philadelphia struck 250 2.5-ounce silver Semiquincentennial 2026 Declaration of Independence quarters on the Fourth of July under the authority at 31 U.S.C. 5112(u), which authorizes the minting and issuing of silver fractional coins with designs for the Semiquincentennial quarters and half dollar in sizes, weights, fineness, and denominations, and with inscriptions, that the Secretary of the Treasury determines to be appropriate. Bearing no mint mark and featuring a special "July 4" privy mark, these unique quarters were struck sequentially and edge-numbered from 1 through 250.

"These 250 coins represent a truly remarkable moment in our nation's history," said Mint Director Paul Hollis. "Struck on the Fourth of July during America's Semiquincentennial, they commemorate 250 years of independence, making them far more than collectibles—they're historic artifacts that connect us to this milestone celebration and will be treasured for generations to come."

The 2.5 oz. Silver Quarters are a collectible version of the Declaration of Independence privy mark quarters, struck on July 4th, identical in design, with the sequence of each coin lasered on the edge. These Silver Quarters will be auctioned at a later date, to be determined. These unique and rare Silver Quarters will be a lasting tribute to our Semiquincentennial and will be cherished by collectors.
