Question
MY FATHER IN LAW HAS FOUND AN UNCIRCULATED STATE QUARTER THAT IS SILVER ON ONE SIDE AND GOLD ON THE OTHER....AT THIS TIME I DON'T KNOW THE STATE. HAVE YOU HEARD OF ANY OTHER STATE COINS BEING FOUND LIKE THIS. IF SO, WHAT MIGHT IT'S VALUE BE????
Linda,
It could not have come from the mint this way. If it was silver on one side and COPPER on the other, then it could be a mint error known as a unfinished planchet -- worth $300-$400.
However, if it is GOLD on one side, then the coin had to be altered after it left the mint.

Expertise
My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.
