No state quarters minted in either Philadelphia or Denver contain silver.
How can you check how much silver there is in a quarter?
All quarters from 1796 to 1853 contain 6.1 grams of silver 1853 to 1964 contain 5.6 grams of silver Some of the 1976 bicentennial issue quarters are partial silver -- 2.3 grams Lastly there are silver proof state quarters that contain 5.6 grams of silver. Excessively worn coins will have some of the silver worn away. If you have a pile of 1964 & older quarters and want to find the silver content, weigh the pile -- remembering to weigh them in TROY ounces -- then take the total weight and multiply by .9 -- this will give you the weight of the silver contained in the pile.

What is the value of all 112 proof state quarters?
There aren't 112 proof state quarters. There are only 50 proof state quarters, (along with 6 in the DC/US territories). Unless you are meaning you had both the clad (copper-nickel, common) proofs and the silver proof sets. But just about every clad US proof state quarter is worth about $1 or so, silver proof quarters go for about $7-8 or about fifty cents or a dollar above melt value individually.

How much silver is in the 50 state quarters?
Circulating state quarters minted at Philadelphia (P) and Denver (D) are made of copper-nickel and don't have any silver at all. Beginning in 1992, some proof-quality State Quarters were struck in 90% silver for sale in special "Prestige" sets. These carry an S mint mark and are intended for collectors and investors, not for spending. Each of the new SILVER quarters struck in San Francisco (States, Territories and National Parks) weighs about 6.250 grams and is 90% silver. A quick calculation tells us that each set of 5 of these new quarters will contain just short of 1 ounce of silver (6.250g x .90=5.265g silver per coin. 5.265g=.19oz. silver. .19oz x 5 coins = .95oz. silver per set of 5) This is not EXACT but close enough for most people. Hope this answers your question a little better.

What is the silver content of the statehood quarters collection by the Postal Commemorative Society?
The coins don't contain any silver. They're ordinary cupronickel state quarters that have been repackaged and sold as "instant collectibles". However most of the price goes towards the package; uncirculated state quarters are available from many other sources at a much lower price. The secondary market for most such "special" numismatic and philatelic products is minimal which makes them a poor investment choice.

What is the value of a 1964 US quarter?
1964 is the most common date for silver quarters. Late-date silver quarters (mid-50s through 1964) are generally worth their metal value unless they're in uncirculated condition. In average circulated condition, their value is determined mostly by the silver they contain. The price of silver changes every day, so check a newspaper or financial site for the current price, then multiply by 0.18 for a rough retail value. A dealer will pay half to 2/3 of that amount. A 1964 Washington Quarter that is in a mint state of BU is worth $10; proof versions are about the same.

What was the best year for silver quarters money wise?
Depends on what you mean. If you mean what are the cheapest silver quarters, 1964 and 1963 are by far the cheapest. Mint state examples just cost silver melt since so many of them were minted and then hoarded by the public because of the debasing of our currency. If you mean what quarters are the most expensive, the 1916 Standing Liberty quarter, 1932-S Washington Quarter and several earlier quarters are worth quite a bit over silver melt.
