    All of those are just burnt or corroded quarters. Try scraping some of it off to see that it's not completely brown.

    Hi guys. I’m new here as well. I came across an old bag of quarters and became interested in knowing if any are of a particular special value. One of them is 1974 and brown just like the pictures above. However, mine does not have a mint location stamp. It’s missing the P or D all the other quarts have. Anybody have any input?

    The absence of a mint mark means that the 1974 Quarter was minted at the Philadelphia mint. Worth 25 cents.

    Anything else cool in the bag?

    Nothing I can find with my limited knowledge. The coins have been kept in a ziplock bag overseas for many years so I ought there might be a chance.

    I have one too just as described. I found it in dirt so I know why it looks this way. However, after I found it,it is the sound that draws my attention.
    If I missed the answer above, I apologize.

    I have a 1974 quarter that is nickel plated on one side and plain copper on the other side. It has been kept in a coin box since the 1070's. It has not been in the elements.

    Welcome to the neighborhood, Sonny!

    It would be best if you started a new thread with an appropriate title, and be sure to post clear photos of both sides of the coin.

    Welcome aboard - that's a very old coin, maybe a time traveler? :rolleyes:

    Here is a reference book for your situation:
