The Washington Quarter was first minted in 1932, after a long discussion between the US Mint and Congress. Celebrating George Washington’s bicentennial of his birth, there were talks of his portrait taking over the Walking Liberty Half Dollar just for the year. Although a design was officially chosen for the commemorative, Congress decided to go with a different design to replace the Standing Liberty Quarter that had only been in circulation for 15 years. The Washington Quarter was minted in 1932 and still reigns as the US Quarter to date.
