Best not to walk around with one hand busy in your pocket for any length of time.

I do not think a hole would develop. The outside edges would wear down first. The coin would eventually get so thin that it bent.

You cannot rub it incessantly. You must sleep, eat, relieve yourself, etc., or you won't live to 100.
But for lots of other reasons (among them the fact that human flesh does is not very efficient as an instrument of abrasion on metal), the answer to question 1 is no. I doubt you would be below AU when you croak.
Question 2: The abraded particles probably wind up in landfills or the bottom of bodies of water. For example, if they lodge in your clothing, they get washed out then run down the sewer. Same process if they wind up on your fingers (unless you never wash).

I hope you washed your pants in 100 years. The same microscopic silver dust is on all coins whether carried by you all the time or everyone else and went from one pocket to the next. Your quarter gets worn no matter who all carried it. Not to worry. Eventually a coin will wear so thin it would theoretically disappear I suppose.

The metal as with anything goes into a additional dimension than ours. There are additional dimensions created constantly every time something is done in ours. It is sort of like when you drop something and it sort of just vanishes. It went into one of those other dimensions. This is why you now find something when you look for what was dropped and something else has replaced it. Then sometime in the future your original lost item reappears. That now missing Silver, or other coin metals, simply went to that other dimension so it will then someday reappear but somewhere else such as a Silver mine. If you followed this and are considering it as fact, you may need help.

I am rather certain that, if you a rub quarter for one minute every day, after 100 years or so you will be unable to father children.

Awesome answer but, prove that you ain't right, I need to make certain the help I require ain't more than I can afford 'cause... there are some compelling arguments for the interesting scenario you present.

Quote: I would not worry about being poisoning by the silver, people take colloidal silver internally as an antibiotic. But too much colloidal silver will make you turn blue. See Argyria.
