Um... it is impossible for it to be all silver. The vast majority of Bicentennial quarters are copper-nickel and worth only 25 cents. Some Bicentennial quarters with an "S" mintmark are 40% silver. If you found a Bicentennial quarter in your pocket change chances are it isn't silver. Unless it is in mint packaging saying it is silver, it is most likely not silver.

The quarters before 1873 contained different levels of silver, but such coins are collectable and worth more than melt value.
