In the world of numismatics, where the rarity and historical significance of coins drive their value, few discoveries capture the imagination like the Bicentennial Quarter Bonanza.
These quarters, originally intended for circulation, have become prized artifacts sought by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
The journey of these rare Bicentennial quarters began in the bustling mints of 1976.
In honor of America's bicentennial celebrations, the United States Mint produced special quarters featuring a unique design.
Unlike regular quarters, which bore the familiar image of George Washington, these coins showcased a distinctive reverse side.
The reverse depicted a colonial drummer and a candle-lit colonial drum in honor of the nation's 200th birthday.
Among the millions minted, only a handful were struck with errors that make them exceedingly rare.
