  • Description:

    Washington began his career by inheriting a tobacco farm in Virginia. Instead of riding out his family's fortune, he enlisted. He was quickly recognized as an outstanding leader and was promoted to Senior Officer in the Colonial Militia during the French and Indian War. His early successes only set him up for further greatness when he was the Commander in Chief for the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War. In 1789, Washington was elected the first president of the United States and held the office for 8 years. Washington made history and earned the respect worldwide when he decided to step down, instead of keep running for president. Compared to other world leaders, who usually reign until they die, Washington desired to see the country thrive with new leadership every 4-8 years and not a minute longer.

    The 1935-S Washington Quarter is in very fine condition and has a mintage of over 5.6 million. The San Francisco Mint helped produce some of the most popular coin collections in history, including the Washington Quarters. This West Coast-based mint was first established in order to supply a place gold miners could sell their gold. It ended up being a very lucrative business, turning out $4 million dollars of gold in its first year. It quickly outgrew its first building and moved to the Granite Lady building, where it withheld its structure during the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The building wasn't actually made of granite, just the basement was but the name was used for marketing and stuck. In 1937, it moved to its final facility that is still the San Fran Mint today.
