β 16y agoIf the cladding has come off and the coin is thinner than a normal quarter, it's called a lamination error. That happens when the bond between the copper core and the cupronickel cladding fails. This error can retail for $10-12.
However if the coin is the same thickness as a regular quarter it's NOT a lamination error because it still has full cladding. The color change is the result of being plated with some other metal for use in jewelry, or exposure to heat/chemicals. In this case it's considered to be an altered coin and has no extra value.

25 cents. Please take a closer look. If your quarter has a picture of George Washington on one side, 1788 near the top of the other side, and it looks new, that's because it IS new. You have a State Quarter with two dates on it. 1788 is the date that the state was admitted to the Union, NOT the date the coin was minted. In addition, the mint mark next to the tail of Washington's wig will be either P, D, or (maybe) S, indicating the coin was made in Philadelphia, Denver, or San Francisco rather than in Georgia. The minting date is at the bottom of the design on the back side. Check your pocket change - every state quarter in circulation has 2 dates on it.
I'm unable to display images as I'm a text-based assistant. However, you can easily find images of Hawaii's state quarter by doing a quick search online. The Hawaii state quarter features King Kamehameha I stretching out his hand with the state outline in the background and inscriptions of "UA MAU KE EA O KA AINA I KA PONO" (the state motto) and "1959" (the year Hawaii became a state).

Either a First Quarter Moon or a Third Quarter Moon.
A First Quarter moon brings increasing light and visibility to the moon's surface, marking the halfway point between a New Moon and a Full Moon. It is a good time for taking action, making decisions, and moving forward with projects that were started during the New Moon phase.
A quarter of a turn is a right angle or 90 degrees which looks like the capital letter L

If you mean half of a quarter note, then it looks the same as a quarter note but with a flag on the top of the stick.
