All circulating 1994 quarters were made of copper-nickel.
90% silver quarters were minted for sale in special "Prestige" proof sets, so if you really want to have one you'll need to either buy an entire proof set (about $35) or find a dealer who's broken up one of the sets into its individual coins.
The 1970 Washington quarter was NOT struck in silver.
$2 to $25 American. ----------------------- I hate to say it, but you will not get more than three dollars. I dont know if you could even get ten for a completely uncirculated coin. update : I just got $4.84 for a circulated 1964 quarter today. You just need to find a reputable coin dealer. The silver price today for 1932-1964 Washington quarter is $5.84 (it changes with the price of silver) for a higher price you will need to research the value from a collectors view. Above all find a reputable dealer.
About $5.50 for scrap silver. It is a common coin worth no more than bullion content.
You can tell if a quarter is silver by checking the date on the coin. Quarters minted before 1965 were made of 90% silver and 10% copper. Quarters minted from 1965 onwards are made of a copper-nickel alloy.
Try eBay (www.ebay.com) or a local coin shop. Silver value of a 1962 US quarter (90% silver, about 0.1805 troy ounces of silver weight) would be about $2.45 (as of 9/28/07 with silver at $13.71/oz). You should expect to pay between about $3.00 (in circulated condition) to $5.00 (in proof condition).
My advice would be to look online possibly for a dealer that could possibly sell a Hawaiian quarter to you. There is no exact place where it would be easier to find it.
1964 was the last year for 90% silver coins, the only US coin dated 1969 that had silver in it is a Kenndy half dollar at 40% silver with a value of about $1.00
All US quarters minted from 1873-1964 contain the same amount of silver. And all silver proof quarters (1992-present) contain the same amount of silver (keep in mind that coins you find in your pocket change made from 1965-present contain no silver) there was a special silver bicentennial quarter made that only contained 40% silver (keep in mind that the bicentennial quarters you find in change contain no silver) but other than that the silver level has remained constant for all silver quarters. The quarters before 1873 contained different levels of silver, but such coins are collectable and worth more than melt value.
