What is the value of a 1926 US quarter?

Answer 1

Look on the front of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter at the bottom of the pedestal with IN GOD written on it. It may be blank or there may be a D or S. (The M on the other pedestal is the designer's monogram and not a mint mark.)
