US Mint American 90% Silver Quarters - 6.25 Grams (1873-1964)

 

The weight and purity of this listing is for 90% American Silver Quarter Coins struck between 1873-1964.

The Coinage Act of 1792 established the U.S. dollar as the official unit of currency for the newly formed United States and set the groundwork for other denominations, including the quarter dollar. Since then, the quarter has seen numerous changes in design, composition, and weight. Despite these variations, only six major designs were introduced during the era of silver coinage, which lasted from 1796 to 1964. So, how much does a silver quarter weigh? The original Coinage Act specified the weight of a quarter, and later Coinage Acts revised that standard. As a result, the weight of a silver quarter depends on the year it was minted.

 

*Coins minted from 1796-1838 are struck with a gross weight of around 6.74 grams or .2167 troy oz with a fine silver weight of .1934 troy oz.
