1940 Quarter Value Rising With Condition
The highest priced Washington quarters are always the 'Uncirculated' examples, the first image. Descending to the lowest value 'Good' condition quarters. Most collectors eventually replace these 'Good' coins with a finer example.
Uncirculated: The top grade in both quality and value, requires close examination to confirm. Inspect the highest points of design and the fine details for evidence of wear. It is most noticeable as a dulling of the surface and breaks in the mint luster.
Extremely Fine: The lightest of wear and abrasion begins to show in the hair and curls over Washington's ear. Minute details have disappeared and mint luster is absent from the neck and cheek. This quarter is worn, but very lightly.
Fine: Still a respectable coin despite moderate wear. The hair and curls now show only major details. The neck and chin are worn to the point of merging. However the rim and date are clearly separated.
Good: The rim is the indicator at this grade. It has blended slightly with the lettering and date. Washington's portrait is still strong but lacking most detail. This quarter has experienced years of circulation.
