Collectors tirelessly seek coins that embody rarity, historical significance, and unique characteristics.
Recently, the coin-collecting community has been abuzz with the discovery of two more rare Bicentennial quarters, each valued at over $1.425 million USD as of June 2024.
These coins not only highlight the continuing allure of American numismatic treasures but also underscore the incredible value these pieces can hold.
Bicentennial quarters were minted in 1975 and 1976 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the United States' Declaration of Independence.
These quarters feature a special reverse design by Jack L. Ahr, depicting a colonial drummer with a victory torch surrounded by 13 stars.
Unlike standard quarters, these coins bear the dual date "1776-1976," marking the significant milestone in American history.
One of the newly discovered rare Bicentennial quarters is a 1976-S Silver Proof.
