2002-S 25c US Washington Quarter~ Mississippi ~ NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo ~ Silver

The 2002 Mississippi quarter silver proof is part of the 50 State Quarters program, designed to honor each state's unique history and culture. This particular quarter features an image of the magnolia flower, which serves as the state flower, along with the inscription "Mississippi" and its admission date into the Union in 1817. Struck in a proof finish, the coin is made of a silver composition, providing it with a distinct luster and higher collectible value compared to standard coins. The polished surfaces and heightened detail make this proof version particularly appealing to collectors and numismatists. As with other coins in the program, the Mississippi quarter encapsulates the essence of the state and contributes to the broader narrative of American heritage reflected in coinage.
