The Artistry Behind the Coin
Obverse: The classic Washington quarter obverse features John Flanagan's timeless portrait of George Washington, first introduced in 1932. The profile captures America's first president with dignified grace, surrounded by the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "QUARTER DOLLAR," "LIBERTY," and "IN GOD WE TRUST."
Reverse: The Connecticut reverse design immortalizes the legendary Charter Oak, one of America's most famous trees and a powerful symbol of colonial resistance. In 1687, Connecticut colonists hid their royal charter in the hollow of this ancient white oak to protect it from the tyrannical Governor Andros, who sought to revoke their freedoms. The majestic tree stands in full glory, its spreading branches representing the enduring strength of constitutional government. The inscriptions "CONNECTICUT 1788" and "1999" commemorate the state's ratification of the Constitution and the quarter's release year, while "THE CHARTER OAK" identifies this legendary symbol of liberty and self-governance.
Why Collectors Choose This Roll

The bank-wrapped format ensures each coin maintains its original mint luster, while the 40-coin quantity provides flexibility for completing collections, trading, or long-term preservation.
