I was going through my coin bucket and I found this quarter (one the left) is there a reason it is that odd color? I put it next to another quarter for comparison. Thanks!

Spence Moderator United States 34408 Posts	Posted 12/07/2017 9:57 pm Hard to tell for sure, but it looks to me like it might be one of those over-priced late night TV quarters that was gold plated and then marked up for sale to gullible investors. Or it could have been immersed in something that tinted the color. Either way, I'm thinking it is only worth 25 cents.

They are not worth more than face value, but they are still fun to find.
