Best Answer

There are no reports of 1977-D quarters struck* on silver planchets**.

Two things to check:

First, look at the coin's edge. If it shows any copper, you have an ordinary quarter.

Second, if the edge is the same color as the face, compare the coin's weight to an ordinary clad quarter. A silver quarter will be substantially heavier (6.25 gm vs. 5.67 gm). Use a Popsicle stick balance if you don't have an accurate scale.

If the coin weighs the same as a normal quarter, it's simply been plated for use in jewelry or similar.

To clear up terminology:

(*) Coins are struck or minted, not "stamped".

(**) They are struck on blanks or planchets, not "plugs".

August 1, 2009 The US Mint has not issued a quarter with an "M" stamped on it. Probably what you have is a quarter that someone has put their initial on or marked it for some reason. With such a mark it has no numismatic value but is worth $2.52 for the silver it contains.
