I got some State Quarters at the bank today and they included a coin blank for a quarter. Is there any value for coin blanks for collectors? I figure it was worth the quarter anyway just to have as an example of the process the mint goes through to mint coins.

There are two types....

One type has no apparent rim and is just as it would be when cut from the metal strip used. This called a "blank".

One type has been run through what is called an "upsetting" mill. That raises a rim around the edge of the coin. This is called a "Blank Planchet"

It is more normal to find one that has been through the upsetting mill.

$6.00 to $10.00 for either type is about right.

I hope this helps.

Thank you. It looks to me like it is a blank planchet. It's good to know what it is and to have a rough idea of what such a thing is worth.
