<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rascal, post: 4261715, member: 29239&quot;]Quarters were never aluminum but this does not mean that aluminum is not used at the mint. The feeder fingers and other parts of the equipment may also contain aluminum. Sometimes things that are not used at the mint can also get struck into the coins. I even once had a proof quarter still in the cello mint pack with a big strike thru area from someones ring setting being struck into it. The setting had fallen out of the coin after the strike but clearly identifiable by the shape of it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
