1981-D Washington Quarter Uncirculated Coin
1981-D Washington Quarter Uncirculated Coin
This 1981-D Washington Quarter is an uncirculated specimen featuring a sharp strike and original luster. Struck at the Denver Mint, this copper-nickel clad coin showcases the classic George Washington obverse and the heraldic eagle reverse. The surfaces remain bright with crisp details on Washington's hair and the eagle's feathers, indicating it has not seen circulation. This coin is housed in a protective 2x2 cardboard flip, preserving its condition for collectors looking to add a high-quality Denver mint mark example to their Washington Quarter set. As a business strike from the early 1980s, finding examples in this uncirculated state is essential for those focusing on condition and mint luster.
1981-D Washington Quarter Uncirculated Coin
Condition: This item is in uncirculated condition, exhibiting original mint luster and sharp details on both the obverse and reverse. As a business strike, it shows the typical characteristics of a coin intended for circulation but preserved in a protective flip. The Denver Mint "D" mark is clearly visible. The metal content consists of a copper-nickel clad composition, with a pure copper core bonded to outer layers of copper-nickel. Historically, this 1981 issue represents the standard Washington Eagle design that preceded the various commemorative series. The strike type is a standard business strike, and while it is uncirculated, it has not been professionally graded by a third-party service.
