Default Silver Quarters

Post 1965 Quarters I Find Show On My Machine As Quarters Or Some Times As A Penny. Do Pre 1965 Quarters With Silver Show As Different. I'm Using Bounty Huter Qdii. Would Be Glad To Hear From Someone On This Matter.

I use a Whites Eagle Spectrum. I can tell the difference between a clad Quarter and a Silver one. A clad will have condutivity # of around 84 to 85. A silver one runs about 87 to 88. This is not always the case. Depending on depth and how long its been in the ground. Halo effect. Hope this helps some.
