How Much Does A Quarter Weigh?

How much does a quarter weigh? This is a common question among collectors, bullion enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the details of American coinage. The weight of a quarter has changed throughout its history, reflecting shifts in design, composition, and purpose. A modern U.S. quarter weighs 5.67 grams (0.2 ounces). Today's quarters have a copper core with a nickel coating, a composition implemented in 1965. Older silver quarters, minted before 1965, were heavier, weighing approximately 6.25 grams. Whether you’re examining an heirloom piece or exploring the latest releases, knowing the standard weight of a quarter provides valuable insight into its craftsmanship and historical context.
