I found a misstamped Denver mint Tennessee state quarter. The hair of George Washington has extra metal dropped on the head. You can see the hair was stamped on the extra metal. The back side of this same coin is uneven as well. Is it worth any money?

I have a washington quarter the size of a nickel,mint mark and date are not available due to the edge being roled in. I can not find anything online to compare it to cause it is a quarter on a quarter planchet.Is this rare or is there a name for this error??

I have a 2006 North Dakota State Quarter missing the clad layer on the back side. I had three in my posession until i put two in a vending machine when i realized they did not sound just right. I kept the last one and took it to a dealer who did not have an interest in it. He put it in a sleeve for me. The exposed copper is no longer shiny. I know there was a whole roll of them. When I was at the cashier getting my change she broke open a roll and dumped them in the register. Any idea what its worth and to who?

Hello. I just bought a quarter off e-bay for $3.00. It is the 2000 Virginia quarter, the 1 is missing from the 1607-2000 date that is imprinted on the quarter. Rather it looks like ” 607-2000 ” (without the quotations of course). Could it be worth anything?

@Patrice
The silver proof coins were minted in San Fransisco, and contain 90% silver. If your quarter has an S for the mint mark and no copper on the edges, it should be a silver coin. It should weigh slightly more than a regular quarter (6.3g, as opposed to 5.7g), and make a distinctly different sound when dropped onto a hard surface. Don’t do the drop test unless the coin has already been circulated, or you may damage it and reduce the numismatic value.

I found what appears to be a San Francisco mint West Virgina “silver” state quarter. There is no visible copper on the sides of it. I cannot seem to find any information on this quarter. Does anyone know anything about this?

Please email me if you do, I don’t know much about coin collecting but can see how addictive of a hobby this can be!
