Why do you use silver to make coins?
Silver is a precious metal (like gold) and is recognized as having intrinsic value (that is, value as a metal rather than just value as an object) because of its rarity, beauty, and other physical properties, so silver coinage was a convenient way of standardizing that intrisic value (so that each person receiving that silver didn't have to weigh the coin and test its purity in order to determine the value received). Substantially all circulating coinage today is fiat money made from base metals - it has value because the government that issued it says it does, and not because the metal from which it is composed has value. That is, it does not have intrinsic value (at least, not as much intrinsic value as the face value of the coin). The reason for moving from silver to base-metal coinage has to do with both the rarity of silver (the demand for coinage exceeded the availability of the silver from which to produce it) and because of monetary policy (the desire to expand the money supply), the discussion of which is outside the question raised here.

How many quarters to an ounce?
Pre-1965 US dimes, quarter and half-dollars weigh, respectively, 2.5 grams, 6.25 grams and 12.5 grams, and thus a pound of any of them would have a face value of $18.14. In 1965, with the advent of clad coinage replacing the previous 90% silver then in circulation, the weight of the coins dropped a bit, leaving a pound of such coins with a face value of $20. Thus, an ounce of silver coinage would have a face value of $1.13, or 4 1/2 quarters, and an ounce of clad coinage would be $1.25, or exactly 5 quarters.
