Flokizomb Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 10/14/2018 8:15 pm So I found a 2001 P minted Kentucky Quarter that appears to be silver but It doesn't weigh like a silver but the sides show nothing but a silver Color. Could it be printed on a different currency coin? Please help thank you everyone so much!! Report this Post to the Staff

Squiddyjoe New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 01/31/2021 02:36 am I also found a 2001 p kentucky State Quarter that has an all silver reeding. It looks like clad not silver but that copper ring around the edge reeding isn't there. I havent gotten a chance to weigh it yet. It appears to be thinner than a State Quarter should be. It's in excellent condition like it was minted yesterday. Report this Post to the Staff
Squiddyjoe New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 01/31/2021 02:39 am Plated with Mercury. I don't think so. Mercury is poisonous and is in a liquid state. I have a coin just like it and it seems thinner and I definitely know it's not silver. Report this Post to the Staff

Here's an older topic on these. CCF "Mercury Plated" Topic from 2011 I'm sure you can find others. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
