2007 Wyoming Quarter Value:P/D, Silver Proofs and Error Claims

Identify the 2007 Wyoming State quarter, distinguish 1890 statehood from its issue date and compare ordinary P values separately from D, Satin Finish and S Proof versions.

In this article

Quick answer

An ordinary circulated 2007 Wyoming quarter is copper-nickel clad and has a 25-cent face-value baseline. Its bucking horse and rider silhouette is normal. The 1890 inscription records statehood; 2007 is the issue date.

The PCGS retail guide checked October 23, 2026 lists Philadelphia regular strikes at $4 in MS63, $5 in MS65 and $12 in MS66. D coins, Satin Finish mint-set coins and the separate clad or silver S Proofs need matching entries.

Basics & coin story

Wyoming was the fourth State quarter released in 2007 and the 44th in the overall 50 State Quarters program. The Mint released it on September 4, 2007. It was not the final coin of the program, which continued through 2008.

The reverse pairs the bucking horse and rider with THE EQUALITY STATE, recognizing Wyoming’s history of women’s suffrage. Its open silhouette is a deliberate design, so missing facial or clothing detail inside that silhouette is not automatically a weak-strike error.

PCGS records 243,600,000 Philadelphia regular strikes. That quantity describes the ordinary P issue, not the separate collector finishes. A circulated State-quarter collection, a high-grade set and a Proof set therefore represent different preservation and product comparisons.

Identification

Separate 1890 statehood from 2007 issue date

Both dates belong on the normal reverse. The statehood year does not make the coin a nineteenth-century quarter. Identify Washington’s portrait on the obverse and the Wyoming horse-and-rider design on the reverse.

Read P or D beside Washington

The normal regular-strike mint letter is on the obverse. S belongs to separate Proof products. In 2007 those included clad and 90% silver versions, so S alone does not settle composition. The later .999 silver Proof standard should not be applied backward.

Do not treat the silhouette as missing detail

The rider and horse are intentionally stylized. A mark, ridge or unusual patch requires specific production evidence before it can be called a valuable error. Distinguish the designed outline from damage and reflections; an online nickname without attribution does not establish a premium.

Condition & value

Amounts are in U.S. dollars. PCGS retail-guide examples were checked October 23, 2026 and apply only to the stated issue, grade and designation. They are not guaranteed purchase offers; current market conditions and selling costs can change the amount received.

The narrow guide gap between ordinary MS63 and MS65 is a useful reminder to consider transaction costs before submitting a common quarter for grading. MS66 is a different preservation level, and still requires evidence rather than the assumption that an attractive coin is exceptional.

For silver Proofs, first establish the actual collector product and compare its PR grade and contrast designation. A whole Proof set price cannot value one loose quarter. Standard P and D circulating quarters have no normal silver-content premium.

For a claimed error, document both faces, edge and the specific feature in focus. Keep the surface unaltered. Use the grading guide for ordinary wear and contact-mark assessment, then seek attribution evidence for a genuinely unusual production feature.

Summary

Confirm the 2007 issue date, mint and finish. The horse-and-rider silhouette and 1890 statehood inscription are normal. Keep ordinary clad quarters separate from Satin Finish, Proof and authenticated error comparisons.

FAQ

Is a 2007 Wyoming quarter silver?

Ordinary P and D regular strikes are clad. A separate S 90% silver Proof exists alongside the S clad Proof.

Why does the Wyoming quarter say 1890?

1890 is Wyoming’s statehood year. The coin’s issue date is 2007.

Is the open rider silhouette a mint error?

No. The silhouette is part of the normal design. A separate production-error claim requires specific evidence.
