What is the value of a 2000 silver North Carolina quarter?

Answer 1

State quarters honoring North Carolina were made in 2001. The ones for South Carolina were issued in 2000. Regardless of which you have, you first have to determine whether the coin actually is silver.

> If you found it in change and it has a P or D mint mark next to the bow in Washington's wig, it's made of copper-nickel and has no extra value.

> If it has an S mint mark on it, it's a proof coin that's not intended for circulation. These were issued in 2 metals: ordinary ones have a copper edge and are made of the same metal as the P and D issues. Special "Prestige" versions were struck in the same 90% silver alloy used for circulating quarters up till 1964.

In its original packaging a copper-nickel proof South Carolina quarter would sell for $1.50 to $9.00 as of 09/2010 while a North Carolina one would be in the range of $2.30 to $10.00. If it's been in circulation it unfortunately has essentially no added value.

In its original packaging a 90% silver proof for either state would sell for $3.50 to $15.00.

Answer 2

Gold? All the state quarters are copper and nickel and generally only worth face value. If it's been gold plated, then someone who wants it might pay a few dollars.

Answer 3

It's face value only, unless you find someone that wants it. This stuff has no numismatic collectible value.
