Someone asked me to check the value of a 1967 all copper quarter that she thinks is very rare and valuable. Might want to check the value of some others too, but need advice on how to check the value
How to check the value of a coin?

Value is subjective.
There are no crimes against people.
There are only crimes against the state.
And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.
Hahahahaha. But in the aggregate can generate a market price.Originally Posted by fisharmor

I never heard of a copper U.S. quarter. Maybe it is a freak that has it's copper center on the outside?
Here is a scan (the front actually looks to be in much better condition than what is shown):
Looks tarnished. The 1967 Washington Quarters were nickel on copper. Doesn't even have any silver in it. Afraid it isn't worth very much.
http://cointrackers.com/coins/498/19...ngton-quarter/
Type: Washington Quarter
Year: 1967
Mint Mark: No mint mark
Face Value: 0.25 USD
Total Produced: 1,524,031,000 [?]
Silver Content: 0%
Numismatic Value: $1 to $7
Value: As a rough estimate of this coins value you can assume this coin in poor condition will be valued at somewhere around $1, while one in "perfect" condition can bring $7. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say poor, we mean worn more than would be expected from a coin in this age, and perfect meaning it looks "perfect" without flaw and possibly even certified. [?].
Additional Info: The 1967 Quarter is made of a nickel jacket over a copper core. These are much cheaper for the US mint to issue than coins with any real value. The current metal value for a quarter is .06 cents.

Freedom is a state of mind. Nobody can take that from you unless you let them.
You can check the value of any item of currency by spending it.
“If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
- SAMUEL ADAMS
A thread from someone w/ a similar coin had people commenting that the quarter was probably dipped in acid:

It sort of looks to me like it has been in the ground.Here is a scan (the front actually looks to be in much better condition than what is shown):
Here is a picture of some coins found with a metal detector. They were under a lawn and they all look coated with iron oxide.
Maybe a wishing well!
