If it's a US quarter minted in 1965 or later, it's not silver (there are silver coins minted in "proof sets", but these came in a special labeled display case; you're not going to find one in pocket change). US quarters minted in 1964 or before were partly (about 90%, I think) silver.
Sorry no quarters were minted in Delaware. All state quarters were minted in Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco.
The last circulating silver quarters were dated 1964. Special proof-quality 40% silver quarters were minted in 1976, and 90% silver quarters have been made since 1992 but all of these are sold to collectors. None were ever intentionally put into circulation. Real silver? As opposed to fake silver?
