I got a Vicksburg S quarter in a roll and was wondering how you can tell if its silver or not? Thanks.

The edges. if you can see the copper peeking through, then it is not silver.

It looks to me like it was just taken out of a mint or proof set,its in perfect condition,but it does have a coppery looking edge.
