This specimen was lot 4756 in Stack's Bowers August 2020 auction, where it sold for $95. THe lot description noted, "1967 Washington Quarter. SMS. MS-68 * Cameo (NGC)." The Washington quarter superseded the Standing Liberty quarter in 1932 and is still in production, nearly ninety years later. The type was silver for 1932-64. The 1964 and 1964-D, the last silver dates, were struck 1964-65 in massive quantities in a futile attempt to drown the coin hoarders in silver. The mint, in the end, could not stem rising bullion prices and the denomination was converted to copper-nickel in 1965, which alloy is still in use. The mint suppressed mintmarks for 1965-67, so the mintage given below is of Philadephia and Denver combined.

''Recorded Mintage:'' 1,524,031,948 plus 1,863,344 for the Special Mint Sets. This remains the highest mintage date of any quarter.

''Specification:'' 5.67 g, copper-nickel clad copper, 24.3 mm diameter, reeded edge.

''Catalog reference:'' KM 195a.
