Quarter values FAQ
Which quarters are worth more than face value?
All quarters dated 1964 or earlier (90% silver, about $9.70 each in metal at October 2026 prices), the 1932-D and 1932-S Washington keys, Standing Liberty and Barber quarters in any grade, and modern error coins such as the 2004-D Wisconsin extra-leaf variety.
Are state quarters worth anything?
Circulated state quarters (1999–2008) are worth face value. The exceptions are error varieties — the Wisconsin extra leaf, some doubled dies — and uncirculated or silver-proof issues sold in mint sets.
How do I check my quarter's exact value?
Date first (pre-1965 = silver), then mint mark, then condition. Or photograph the quarter in the Coin Value Checker app and get the exact variety with a condition-aware estimate.
