2000 P Silver Quarter

For your future reference if you have doubt of a coins silver content, you can also drop the quarter an inch or two onto a hard surface and listen if it has a silver "ring" to it, as opposed to the "clunk" noise a clad coin has. Alternatively we can say it's not a silver coin just because it doesn't have the silver look at all. Buy or obtain at least one known silver quarter and put it side to side with the suspected silver coin. The differences should be obvious if it's not silver. This trick works for all U.S. dimes, quarters, halves, and dollars.

Yes I know I know, it's a bad idea to drop coins on purpose, but I love sound of ringing silver, so I have no regrets .
