That's not really a valid question. "Circulated" means that a coin has been spent in commerce, so any quarter than you find in change is by definition circulated, regardless of its mint mark.
Uncirculated coins have never been spent - they're either directly purchased from the Mint in special sets, or obtained from a bank in bags or rolls before they've been sent to stores, given out in change, etc.
No. Philadelphia hasn't minted silver quarters since 1964. Any silver state quarters were proofs minted in San Francisco.
Today quarters are made in three mints: the Philadelphia mint, the Denver mint and the San Fransisco mint. The Philadelphia mint and Denver mint produce quarters for circulation, while the San Fransisco mint makes proof quarters for collectors.
These quarters were made at 3 US mint facilities- Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. The Philadelphia mint made these for circulation and these don't have a mint mark. The Denver mint marked with a "D" also made them for circulation. The San Francisco mint marked with a "S" made special coins called proofs. These were sold to collectors and investors.
If you mean 1979 quarters without mintmarks? 515,708,000 were released into circulation from the Philadelphia mint. 1980 was the first year a "P" mintmark was used on quarters.

The letter on quarters represents which mint facility produced the coin. "P" stands for Philadelphia Mint and "D" stands for Denver Mint. These marks help identify where the coin was minted.
US Quarters minted in 1954 bear both the mint mark of San Francisco, California mint "S" and the mint mark of the Denver, Colorado mint "D". Additionally, the US Mint at Philadelphia, Pensylvania also struck these quarters but no mint mark was used.
