Technically they are worth 25 cents. 1964 was the last silver was used to make quarters. So unless they're uncirculated or proof no, they're worth 25 cents.
US quarters minted before 1965 are 90% silver and worth several times face value. At present, a '61 quarter is worth a little over $5.
Those minted before 1965 are 90% silver and currently worth just under $5. Anything 1965-present is copper/nickel and worth face value only.
Quarters minted after 1965 do not contain silver. Only pre-1965 were struck with a certain percent of sliver.
25 cents. 1965 was the first year of issue with the copper-nickel composition that current quarters have. In 1965 many, many, many quarters were minted and so it isn't a rare year. If you look hard enough, you can find many 1965 quarters in pocket change.
Silver quarters were minted from 1796 to 1964. Starting in 1965, quarters were made of a copper-nickel alloy.

It's pretty obviously worth at least $0.25. If it's a US quarter, 1964 was the last year quarters contained silver, and it's worth considerably more than that. Quarters from 1965 and later are cupro-nickel, the same as quarters minted today.
Any quarters minted before 1965 contain 90% silver and are worth several times face value.

Any quarters minted before 1965 are 90% silver and worth several times face value, but they disappeared from circulation over 40 years ago. The rest are 25 cents.
Yes. That was the first year the U.S. minted quarters out of copper instead of silver.
The last silver quarters were minted in 1964.
Those minted from 1946-64 are worth around $2.50, and anything 1965-present is worth face value.
Not really. All 1965 quarters are made out of copper-nickel, the same material that all circulating quarters are made of today. Only 1964 and before quarters are silver. There were billions of 1965 quarters minted so unless yours is in a special mint set, I'd spend it, it won't be worth any more later down the line.
