Coin and Paper Money Collecting/Current Misprinted Quarter

Question
How much is a shiny, good as new 2007 golden quarter worth?  It has all of the same features as a (Washington 2007) quarter, but it is a nice gold color instead of silver.

Answer
Kat,

Without seeing it I cannot be sure if its golden color comes from toning or gold plating.  In either case its value is minimal -- less than a dollar.

Yes, you will see people trying to sell them for that much to unknowledgable buyers -- they even try to get $30 for a set of five of them on TV -- but trust me, take them to any coin dealer and you will be hard pressed to get any kind of offer above face value for them.

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.
