Rare Bicentennial Quarter Worth Nearly $40 Million USD + 3 More Worth Over $300,000

The world of numismatics, or coin collecting, often brings to light astonishing stories of rare finds and exorbitant valuations. 

These coins not only hold significant historical value but also represent remarkable opportunities for collectors and investors alike. 

The 1976 Bicentennial quarter, minted to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the United States, is particularly notable due to a unique and exceedingly rare error.

This quarter, which features a Colonial drummer on the reverse and a dual date "1776-1976," was produced in large numbers.  

However, the quarter in question is distinguished by a critical minting flaw that dramatically increased its value. 

This error coin, known as the "Doubled Die Reverse" Bicentennial quarter, displays a doubling effect on the reverse side.  

This error was caused by the die, which imprints the design onto the coin, being misaligned during a subsequent strike.
