The vast majority of 1992 quarters are not silver and are the standard copper-nickel composition. If your coin was not found in a silver proof mint set, most likely it is not silver but rather copper-nickel. If your coin was found in a silver mint proof set, leave it in its packaging and do not remove it. However, if you think that your coin is silver, there are a few tests to see if it really is silver. First off, your coin should have an "S" mintmark on the right side of George Washington's head by his ponytail. If your coin lacks this, it is not silver. However, even if your coin has an "S" mintmark doesn't make it silver, your coin could still be a copper-nickel proof. What you need to do then is look at the edge of your coin by the reeding. A copper-nickel coin will have a line of brownish red copper through it, a silver coin will not and a silver coin will appear 100% white. If there even is just a little bit of copper showing, it is copper-nickel and not silver. However, if your coin is one of the silver proofs, it is worth about $5.25 for the silver content and perhaps as much as $6 or 7 if still in mint-state condition.
The coin is still found in circulation and is face value
