If it is damaged, probably only the value of the silver. Your coin could be a - Halfcrown - sterling silver, 32mm in diameter. Shilling - sterling silver, 23.5mm in diameter. Sixpence - sterling silver, 19mm in diameter. The diameter and the details of the inscription on the reverse would be helpful in identifying your coin.
If it is dated 1886, with a young Victoria on the obverse and the George and the Dragon design on the reverse, it will be a 22 carat gold Sovereign. The Half-Sovereign coin did not feature George and the Dragon until the second half of 1893. The Half-Sovereign is 19.3 mm in diameter, the Sovereign is 22.05 mm in diameter. The 38.6 mm diameter sterling silver Crown coin did not feature George and the Dragon until 1887. If this does not identify your coin, you possibly have some sort of commemorative token or medallion.
In circulated condition, it's worth about $15

No US quarters dated 1966 are silver. The only US quarters struck in silver are dated 1964 or before with the exception of silver proof sets (most proof sets are -not- silver and silver proof sets are marked as silver) but those are dated from 1992-present.

If you have a U.S. silver dollar dated 1790, then you have a counterfeit. The mint did not start making silver dollars until 1794
Yes, if they are dated 1935 or earlier they have 90% silver.
If the quarter or dime is dated 1964 or earlier, it's 90% silver with 10% copper. If it's dated 1965 or later, there is absolutely no silver in it.
