<p>[QUOTE="mark054, post: 1139421, member: 30044"]Thanks to all for your best wishes and advice on this quarter. After a day of researching it, I've concluded it must be a fake. It's too soft (like lead) and leaves a mark when rubbed on paper. So it's likely worthless except that it would probably still work in a parking meter. </p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, I'm disappointed. But at least now I know what to look for. If anyone finds a "silver 1965 quarter" in the future, tell them to bend it by hand and rub it on paper. That appears to be the quickest test. Hopefully theirs will pass as mine did not. Thanks to all who posted. </p><p><br /></p><p>Cheers![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
