Still one of my favorites, and probably a big part of why I’m not a fan of the constantly changing designs we have on our quarters now. I was six when these were released, and from then on finding a bicentennial quarter was always a big deal to me. All the other quarters I saw looked the same, but Bicentennial quarters were clearly special. Now, with four quarter designs every year every quarter is different, and none of them seem particularly special.

The first American Samoa Quarter to pass my way.

The overall mintage for the American Samoa Quarter is a notable dip for quarter production. Just over 82 million quarters were produce for circulation across both the Philadelphia and Denver mints making it the lowest mintage quarter since 1956.

Just this once the angle of the coin image is not due to rushed/sloppy/lazy imaging on my part. The faces of the coin are actually rotationally offset. And since I use a flatbed scanner to take pictures of the coins I align them in the scanner based on the side facing up… i.e. not the side being imaged the result is angled coin pics.
