5 Responses to D.C. Quarter Design of Duke Ellington Wins



  1. Roberta Smalls says:

    I would like to purchase the Duke Ellington quarter but cannot find the information on where to purchase and the cost of the coin. Can you assist?

  2. Eric Schibli says:

    The quarter was pulled because of the “taxation without representation” line.

  3. Eric Schibli says:

    Nevermind, sorry, I was wrong.

  4. V. Rodi says:

    What is (what appears to be) “jf ccc” on the rear of Washington’s collar (obverse) on the DC quarter?

  5. Johan says:

    The initials indicate the modified obverse design is by William Cousins (”WC”), who based it from the original John Flanagan (”JF”) design.
