One such story recently captured the attention of numismatists and the general public alike: an exceedingly rare Bicentennial quarter valued at almost $8 million.
This remarkable coin, produced to commemorate the United States' 200th anniversary in 1976, stands out not only for its historical significance but also for its extraordinary worth.
However, it is not alone in its high value; there are seven other coins that, collectively, are valued at more than $88 million USD.

The Bicentennial quarter, officially known as the Washington Quarter, features a unique design that distinguishes it from regular quarters.
These coins were minted between 1975 and 1976, and unlike most commemorative coins, they were produced for general circulation.
The quarter valued at almost $8 million owes its staggering worth to several factors. Firstly, it is an error coin, struck in 1976 but with a 1975 date.
This minting error, coupled with its impeccable condition and historical significance, has made it one of the most sought-after coins in the numismatic world.
