Got super excited when I first unwrapped the roll because I thought I found my first silver quarter in the wild. But when I picked it out, I was surprised to see a 2010 P state park quarter. There is no hint of copper anywhere on the rim and it is bright and shiny like silver. I don't think its silver, so don't feel like you're letting me down haha. Any information on this? Weight is 5.732g so within normal range... Thanks in advance for your input! Report this Post to the Staff

If it were silver it would weigh a lot lower at 6.25g Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
