Numismatic marvel the Double-Struck Quarter costs over $30 million. This quarter was struck twice in a rare minting error, creating overlapping images visible to the naked eye.
2. Quarter Double-Struck
Off-center strikes characterise another $28 million quarter. The 1976 Bicentennial Quarter was 15% off-center, rare. Rare due to off-center strike and silver composition.
3. The Off-Center Silver Quarter
Minting errors are appealing, as the $27 million ‘No S’ Quarter shows. San Francisco Mint's ‘S’ mint mark should be on this quarter. A minting error omitted the ‘S’. This error and limited production make it rare.

Detail and quality distinguish the $25 million Full-Step Tail Quarter. Other quarters have worn or poorly struck Independence Hall images, but this quarter had full steps. Clear, sharp steps indicate the coin's mint condition and rarity.

Finally, the $25 million Rainbow Toned Quarter is famous for its colour. Metal interaction with its environment has given this quarter a natural, multicoloured tint. Collectors who value history and beauty like this toning.
