How much is a gold quarter from 2003 worth?

Answer 1

Possibly not ... The quarters may have been contaminated with a chemical that caused this phenomenon. If the outside edge is still copper colored, this may be the case and they have no other value than 25 cents.

Several companies have been selling gold-plated statehood quarters on TV at high prices since the series first started in 1999. Someone who bought some of these probably tried to recoup his "investment" and discovered that they have NO value on the secondary market and just spent some.

Answer 2

If it is one of the gold plated versions sold as a "collectable", these are still available from the manufacturer and only worth their retail price of $2 to $3 and only if it is still mint in the case and uncirculated. These were (and continue to be) manufactured by a third party vendor that simply takes quarters and electroplates them for resale.

If it is out of the case or damaged, it's worth twenty five cents plus whatever weight in gold you can scrape off and sell for scrap (generally a few cents worth). If it still looks good but is out of the case, its worth maybe $1 if you can find a buyer

If it is a solid gold coin, these are worth current market value of the gold in them. These were just stamped pieces of gold and intended to be used the same as a gold ingot, their value is the gold itself and not the coinage. This could easily be worth a few hundred (or more) depending on the type of gold used (14k, 18k, 24, etc) and the total weight (even minor differences in the carving or scratches can change the weight).

Answer 3

Your quarter is only gold plated. Neither the US nor Canada makes gold quarters. Gold plating adds no value.

Answer 4

No. It is only gold plated. Gold plating doesn't add any value.
