        Silver quarters were 6.25 grams of 90% pure silver. Silver is currently $0.91/g putting the value of the metal at about $5.10.

        Coin collectors today will buy your 1925 quarter for $30-$100 depending on condition.

        However in 1925 that quarter would be worth its face value of $0.25 — equal to $4.49 today.

      Maybe they intended to invest it for a century and were counting on compound interest.
