∙ 12y agosilver content in 1867-1967 Canadian quarter
80% silver, 20% copper
If it's a gold-colored "Loon" dollar, it has no silver at all. "Loonies" minted in 2001 are made of brass-plated nickel.
Last year for Canadian silver content coins was a partial production in 1968. A magnet will pick up newer quarters but not pre 1968 silver coins this includes dimes as well.
90% silver
None. It's pure nickel. Canada hung onto silver in its coins a bit longer than the US but stopped by mid-1968.
6 bucks
About $3 due to its silver content.
It is 90% silver. The rest is copper.
No. The last year for silver in Canadian dimes and quarters was 1968.
None. Please don't assume that every older coin must be made of silver. Canadian 5¢ coins haven't contained any silver since 1921. Since that time they've mostly been made of nickel or plated steel; during WWII they were made of brass.
None.
