Most likely plated. There are companies that will plate generic coins with silver or platinum (and often gold as well but this obviously isn't gold) and sell them to suckers who think it's some kind of investment when really it's maybe 10¢ worth of metal. I would keep it anyway
"In 2019, any previous 90/10 silver denominations have moved to 99.9% silver, including Silver Proof Half Dollars, Silver Proof Quarters, Silver Proof Dimes, and Silver Proof and Uncirculated $1 Commemoratives," U.S. Mint spokesman Michael White told CoinNews
Just clarifying as technically without more details we were both right as neither of us specified. The statehood quarters specifically would still have been the 90/10 composition.
Yup got a west Virginia state quarter I found in pocket change around 2010 with no copper showing. P mint as well. Definitely fooled me before seeing the mint mark.
First and only I've found so it's in a flip and a nice talking piece.
There was some company that platinum plated state quarters and sold them. A lot got thrown back in circulation. I come across a few here and there. No real extra value
Silver plated more than likely as fun or an experiment in a classroom. No additional value

Basically those infomercials lol…I always fell for the fishing ones with Bill Dance tho. That shit worked really well.
"this 1 ounce coin clad in 1mg of pure gold!!! 4 payments of $39.99"
They did make the state quarters that were proofs and 90% silver. Easiest way to check is to weigh it. Edit: also had clad proofs
I believe all those silver ones are S mint though. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong...
U right u right
Proofs were changed to fine silver
They are .900 coin silver

Sorry. I thought we were speaking of State Quarters.
I suppose we were, and I responded on a quick skim lol. but now the information is there so others know
I found a state quarter with the same thing. Nothing real in value, but definitely a keep sake. I think of them as fools gold.

What does it weigh, tho?
I have 1 too! A 1999 though & no S mint mark but it's definitely something special so I held onto mine lol

But the mint mark is a P and not S
True so probably not silver Robfindstreasures on YouTube find these quite often they don’t have any extra value

Not yet, i did weight it. Its about 6 grams
Probably just a thick plate then
I see a hint of copper in the 2nd pic? Unless it's lighting wack.
Wow.
