1939 Quarter

Notes: The total US Mint output of Washington Silver Quarter Dollars for the year 1939 was nearly 20,000,000 more than issued the year before. This fact makes the 1939 Quarters worth significantly less than the 1938 minted coins. Almost 9 thousand proofs were issued this year at the Philadelphia mint as well. Proofs are selling for just over $400 on a good day.

How much is a 1939 Quarter worth?

In Average Circulated (AC) condition it's worth around $7.00, one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $65 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say Average Circulated, we mean in a similar condition to other coins circulated in 1939, and mint state meaning it is certified MS+ by one of the top coin grading companies. *** [?].
