[QUOTE="ReaperRuler, post: 1523967, member: 38320"]Hey all, I went in today to dump my previous CRH stuff before school started and I got a 1965 quarter in change. I thought nothing of it since I have seen quite a lot of them in my travels.

I'm perfectly fine passing it off as a run of the mill clad '65 if it didnt make the silver sound.... Is it possible that there is some silver in it? Is it possible it's counterfeit as well?
