No, there is no silver in a 1817 US penny.
Please take another look at your coin. It almost certainly will have a picture of James Madison and the dates 1809-1817 or James Monroe and 1817-1825, and the back will have an image of the Statue of Liberty. That means you have a modern Presidential $1 coin. Hundreds of millions of them have been minted, and they have no added value.
No US quarters were minted in 1817.
Richard Dadd was born in 1817.
It's not from 1817 and it's not from Mississippi. If you look more closely at your quarter (you did wonder how a nearly 200 year old quarter could look so shiny, right?) you'll see it has 2 dates. It's a modern state quarter. 1817 is the date Mississippi was admitted to the union. The other date is the year it was minted.
May 19th, 1817, was a Monday.
October 2, 1817 was a Thursday.
If the coin is about the size of a quarter and has a picture of the Statue of Liberty on the back, it's not from 1817 and it's not gold. It IS a dollar though. It's one of the new $1 coins issued as part of the Presidential dollars series.These coins are made of brass and have the minting date inscribed on the coin's edge. "1817" is part of the dates served by the president depicted on the coin, either James Madison (1809-1817) or James Monroe (1817-1825). Hundreds of millions have been minted so they're neither rare nor valuable. Go ahead and spend it.
