1958 Washington Quarter

The 1958 Washington Quarter had a total mintage of just over 6 million from the Philadelphia Mint. This is the fourth lowest mintage in the entire series between 1941 and 1964. This coin is relatively common and easy to find in uncirculated Mint State, although the highest grades are somewhat scarce to find. The 1958 Washington Quarter had a low mintage, therefore, many of the coins were saved by the roll which is why it is believed that so many Mint State coins are available. The prices for this coin are low compared to most in the Washington Quarter series, and would make a valuable addition to a collection.
