About Dan Moore
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.

Experience
I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.

Topic: Coin Collecting



Expert: Dan Moore
Date: 7/20/2008
Subject: gold colored quarter

Question
I've come up with a gold colored quarter. Have never seen anything like it before.  Could you tell me whether it's worth anything?32

Answer
Larry,

Without a first-hand examination, I cannot be 100% sure, BUT ...

Most likely you have either a gold plated coin or a coin that has been exposed to environmental or chemical factors that have caused a color change to the metal.

In either case, it has no added collector value.

Dan
