| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Thomas Jefferson, depicted in late 18th-century attire with a ruffled jabot, coat, and powdered queue wig, occupying the central field. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM curves along the upper legend, while IN GOD WE TRUST appears along the lower left, and the dual commemorative date 1776 • 2026 runs along the lower right. The San Francisco Mint mark S is situated in the lower right field adjacent to the bust. The design is rendered in high relief with frosted devices against a mirror-polished proof field. |

| Additional information |
The Declaration of Independence quarter is part of the American Women Quarters Program's successor initiative — but a .999 silver striking at this specification sits outside standard bullion quarter production, suggesting this is a numismatic product rather than a circulation strike. The 2026 date places it within the United States semiquincentennial, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration itself, which Congress has been planning commemorative programming around since at least the American Semiquincentennial Commission's formation in 2020.
