I can't say one way or the other from the pic, but a simple investigation should decide what the composition is. An edge pic would be the first: if a copper layer is seen, then it's not silver. Next, the weight should be taken. A 90% silver quarter should weigh about 6.3g. Quarters containing no silver should be around 5.6-5.7g.

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 11/14/2018 08:37 am Photos are known to produce an image that's untrue to the human eye . I'm not saying it's impossible because the prior year many silver Quarters were produced ,so it's possible a lone silver blank got mixed up in the till . But as spruett001 mentions there are many ways to tell if it's silver or clad . Report this Post to the Staff
