BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 6:15 pm I am not convinced that this is a plated coin. In your tissue test picture- which coin is it? Report this Post to the Staff

piercethegrimes Valued Member United States 260 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 7:41 pm It looks like the edge of your coin is uniform in composition but it may be the glare. Can you tell? Report this Post to the Staff
BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 8:00 pm I would be in no rush to toss this coin. You should definitely have this XRF tested. Report this Post to the Staff

Novelhunter New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 07/04/2018 07:46 am Thank you all for your comments. I'm new here and it's great to post and read about all ya'lls others coins! To answer a comment about the edge composition, I did have a better picture that I didnt see when I was uploading: Also, I think it passed the tissue test, it had a definite glow and it looks and feels different- I definitely would like to xray it, to see if it's solid someday! Canada made silver quarters in 1967-1968 right?! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/04/2018 08:14 am I remember them getting stuck in pop machines a lot because they were steel coins. Then the machines didn't work. The coin stuck to the magnet preventing the machine from working. Of course, the coin wasn't returned. Report this Post to the Staff

You need to find out if the US mint minted any for other countries in that year. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 07/04/2018 10:35 am Yes all Canadian 1967s are silver and some 68s. But again, this would have nothing to do with your coin. The US did make some of the Canadian 1968 dimes, but these were not silver and again have nothing to do with your quarter. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

da Swampster Valued Member United States 420 Posts	Posted 07/04/2018 12:23 pm Seems to me I recall some of the first few years of clad quarters being particularly well clad -- to the point ya couldn't really tell for sure just looking at the edge.. When I take the initial obverse photo n enlarge it I start seeing some "green" & "coppery looking" spots.. Take a look at "God We Trust," lower part of bow in hair and date/rim/edge reeding.. Then other areas begin to pop a bit too -- throat, upper-back neck, top of hair and around "RTY" first; remainder of coin next.. I think it's a very-well-clad quarter..
