It depends on what series of "Old Quarters" you are asking about. Please post new question with a date.
US Quarters minted in 1954 bear both the mint mark of San Francisco, California mint "S" and the mint mark of the Denver, Colorado mint "D". Additionally, the US Mint at Philadelphia, Pensylvania also struck these quarters but no mint mark was used.
The lack of a mint mark indicates that the coin was minted in Philadelphia. The mint mark P wasn't added to quarters until 1980.
The mint mark on a quarter is typically located on the reverse side, just to the right of the eagle or design element, depending on the specific quarter series. For example, on the state quarters, the mint mark can be found near the bottom, often between the engraving and the edge of the coin. In some older quarters, such as the Washington quarters, the mint mark may also appear above the "D" in "Dollar."
No. The P mint mark didn't appear on most coins until 1980. Dates for "P" mint marks" > Nickels: mid-1942 to 1945 > Dollars: 1979-present > Dimes, quarters, and halves: 1980-present The P mint mark isn't used on cents.
