Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Washington Quarter (Ellis Island) silver coin is that it has a unique design feature. The coin's reverse side features an image of the Statue of Liberty, but it is not the typical front-facing view that is commonly seen on coins. Instead, the design shows the statue from a slightly angled perspective, with the torch and tablet of the statue's right hand visible, while the left hand and the rest of the statue are partially obscured by the coin's rim. This unique design element adds an extra layer of visual interest to the coin and sets it apart from other coins in the series.
