The coin has been appraised by a certified expert and is verified to have a value of around $15. The quarter features the iconic rainbow tone that is so distinctive of silver coins, and it comes from the San Francisco mint location in the United States. This particular variety of the Washington coin is circulated and has been in circulation for many years, adding to its historical significance. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting out, this 1942-S Washington Rainbow Tone Silver Quarter is a must-have addition to any collection. The Washington Quarter was issued for circulation from 1932 to 1998. The design was originally introduced in order to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of George Washington. After a favorable public response, the design continued in use for the denomination in the ensuing years. The quarter dollar has long served as a workhorse denomination within circulation, which has led to relatively high mintages for much of the series. The two most noted key dates are the 1932-D and 1932-S Washington Quarters. The mintages for these issues were 436,800 and 408,000, respectively. Each of the coins commands a premium even in well circulated grades. No other issues of the series have a mintage of fewer than one million pieces for circulation. From 1932 to 1964, Washington Quarters were struck in a composition of 90% silver and 10% copper. Each coin from this era contained 0.18084 troy ounces of silver. Production took place at the Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco Mints. Please use your own judgment to determine the coins grade and value.
