Quarters from 1964 and earlier are often more valuable than those from later years due to their composition; they are made of 90% silver. As a result, their melt value exceeds the face value of 25 cents, especially when silver prices are high. Additionally, quarters from specific years or with rare mint marks can also be more valuable to collectors. Collectors often seek out these older or rarer quarters, making them more sought after and valuable.

Which is more valuable a pile of pennies equaling your weight or a stack of quarters equaling your height?

To determine which is more valuable, we need to consider the weight and height of an average person. A pile of pennies equaling your weight would be worth around $1.00 for every 2.5 pounds, while a stack of quarters equaling your height would be worth approximately $20 for every inch. Since the average person weighs around 170 pounds and is about 5 feet 7 inches tall, the stack of quarters would likely be worth significantly more than the pile of pennies. Therefore, the stack of quarters is more valuable.
