@coincollector2012, you have a fine collection of uncurculated Washington quarters. Mine were mostly plucked from circulation when I was a kid. |

Just to let you know that I look forward every day to see not only what coin you have selected,but also the "history lesson" that accompanies it.
Keep them coming. I agree. While the pictures are great, history is an added value to this thread.  |

1949 cupro-nickel halfcrown from New Zealand. Like the UK, NZ eliminated silver from circulating coins after 1946.  |

Thank you so much for your compliments. I have posted most of the Washington quarters I have. I don't have one for today, but I will have another one tomorrow. The good news is if you guys like my quarters, you will also like my Mercury dimes. Quote:

1948 British halfcrown. This date used to be extremely common in change when I was a little boy!  1948 was the last year that British coins showed "IND IMP" (Emperor of India) as part of the King's titles - India had become independent the previous year! Edited by NumisRob
