With the United States entering World War II late in the year and the economy roaring out of the Great Depression, production of 1941 Washington quarters was up significantly over any of the previous years in the series. Over 100 million Washington quarters were struck in 1941 across the three mints operating then – Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. Dramatic increases in the mintage of Washington quarters, as well as other coin series in production at the time, helped to flood circulation with many new coins and began to crowd out the presence of older coin designs still in circulation at the time.

Uncirculated: Best described as never been touched, appearing as if fresh from the mint. The color of the coin is either bright silver white or naturally toned. Technically the requirement is the total absence of wear. Look for the first evidence of abrasion from circulation showing as a break of the delicate luster on the cheeks.
Extremely Fine: Slight wear confined only to the highest points of the design. The areas of focus to determine grade, are the hair details towards the top of Washington's head, the curls above the ear, and the cheeks near the eye. Easily described as a crisp and collectible coin.
Fine: Wear has begun to take its toll on this quarter. Flattened areas of wear cover Washington's hair and curls. Although the hair line along the forehead is visible.
Good: All the major details show but very flattened by wear. The tops of the letters have begun to merge into the rim. In this grade, 1943 quarter value is their silver content.
