The 1940-S Washington Silver Quarter is a classic piece of early 20th-century U.S. coinage, struck at the San Francisco Mint during the silver era of the Washington Quarter series. With a mintage of 8,244,000 pieces, this issue offers collectors a combination of historic appeal and precious-metal content.

Struck in 90% silver and 10% copper, the 1940-S Washington Quarter contains approximately 0.1808 troy oz of actual silver. Its 6.25–6.30 gram weight and 24.3 mm diameter give it the classic specifications associated with pre-1965 U.S. silver quarters.

This example has been professionally certified by NGC as MS67, an impressive Mint State grade that reflects exceptional preservation. Even more appealing is its Sight White designation, highlighting its bright, attractive appearance, while the reported NGC population of 171 coins in MS67 adds to its collectible appeal.

For collectors seeking something beyond ordinary circulated silver, this coin presents a high-grade certified example of a classic Washington Quarter. The estimated Sight White population of 10 or fewer makes this particularly interesting for collectors who appreciate scarce visual designations alongside technical grade and silver content.
