一些特别感兴趣的人被称为双百年季度，这是一个标志性的特别版硬币系列，于1976年铸造，是美国成立200周年。

Like most quarters, the Bicentennial coin features the head of George Washington on one side, but instead of the eagle featured on the reverse side of most quarters minted in that era, it has a picture of a Revolutionary soldier drumming.

Some of the coins were made by being “clad,” a process the U.S. Mint explains as having an inner core of metal surrounded by an outer layer of a different metal.

Bicentennial quarters were minted in three different places — Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco — and are labeled with a “P,” “D,” or “S” to indicate where.

在费城，丹佛和旧金山的三个不同的地方铸造了双百年季度，并标有“ p”，“ d”或“ s”标签，以指示哪里。

The rarer silver-based coins were minted in San Francisco, and have an “S” on them. These coins also have a more golden color and are slightly heavier than the clad versions.

稀有的银币在旧金山铸造了，上面有一个“ S”。这些硬币还具有更金色的色彩，并且比外壳版本更重。

The average value of a 1976-S silver quarter in very good condition is $95, but the auction record for such a quarter was $19,200 in 2019.

Other versions of the Bicentennial quarter have also sold for thousands at auction. A clad Philadelphia Bicentennial quarter, the most common, and usually with no letter on it, once sold for about $1,200 in 2022. A Denver “D” Bicentennial quarter, also clad, was sold for over $6,400 in 2017.

两百年季度的其他版本也在拍卖会上售出了数千个版本。一个最常见的费城比百年纪念季度，通常没有信件，曾经在2022年以1200美元的价格售出。丹佛“ D”二百周年季度（也包含）也包含在2017年的6,400美元以上。
