The Mississippi state quarter was minted in 2002.
None of the State Quarters issued for circulation have more than face value.
....25 cents just like any other post-1965 non-proof quarter. State quarters are not rare or valuable unless they are proof or have some error.
1817 is the year Mississippi became a state. The Mississippi state quarter was minted in 2002, and is worth 25 cents.
This coin is part of the US "States Quarter" program started in 1999 and ending in 2008. Each state will be represented with its own quarter in the order of statehood during this time. Unfortunately, your quarter is only worth 25 cents. The saturation of the market by these coins was very large and these coins are everywhere. However, keep this coin in a collection for years and years and you may see the value increase. Many of these coins will eventually end up in circulation and leave the UNC versions as one of a kind at some point.
The Mint has never made gold quarters. If you have a gold quarter then it has been plated which destroys the numismatic value of the coin. Its value is 25 cents plus the value of the little bit of gold they used to plate it. Some chemicals can cause the quarter to turn different colors. This also does not enhance the value of the coin.
....25 cents unless in mint packaging. They are easily found in pocket change.
The other date 2002 is at the bottom ( same side ) of the coin. 1803 is the year Ohio became a state. It's just a quarter, spend it.
Regardless of date or mintmark, none of the "State Quarters" struck for circulation have more than face value.
It's just a quarter, spend it.
