Washington Quarter Coin Guitar Pick

Play like the musicians of the past with this handcrafted coin guitar pick from master picksmith Dustin Michael Headrick. Originally minted in 1965 by the US Mint to replace the previous 90% silver versions, this smaller quarter-dollar coin features an iconic profile of the United States of America's first president George Washington on the face and a formidable American bald eagle with outstretched wings on the reverse. This coin guitar pick has a finely polished surface and liquid smooth beveled edges for maximum performance and minimum string wear. The tonality is rich, bright, and harmonic, ultimately giving the instrument a completely new sound palette.

Because these guitar picks are handcrafted from authentic coinage, each piece is a one-of-a-kind work of art. No two are exactly the same and may feature micro-excoriation and wear on the surface from circulation.
