Notes: The info above is for the Silver proof version of this coin the Quarter. The quarter for Minnesota was released in April 2005 and has a common loon (looks like a duck to me) and a group of people on a small boat fishing. The words Land of 10,000 lakes is also engraved. This coin was also created by charles vickers. All the state quarters have the words E Pluribus Unum on the reverse bottom middle.

Are Silver Proof Minnesota Quarters Silver?

Yes! Minnesota State Quarter's produced in 2005 are 90% silver to be precise, and contain 0.1808 troy oz or 5.623 grams in total of .999 pure silver. Silver weight is measured in troy ounces. Troy ounces weigh about 2 grams more than the standard ounce. CoinTrackers has built a tool that will let you know if your coin is silver or not. The tool is called Is My Coin Silver?.


Coinage issued in 2005 will only contain silver if minted as a silver proof. Is your coin a silver proof or just a proof? Do they weigh more than other identical coins from the same year? If so they are likely 90% silver. 90% silver coins are much denser than the modern 90% copper 10% nickel blend the mint uses today.
