Are quarters 90% silver now?

Source


The current clad version is two layers of cupronickel, 75% copper and 25% nickel, on a core of pure copper.[3] The total composition of the coin is 8.33% nickel, with the remainder copper. It weighs 0.2000 avoirdupois oz, 1/80 of a pound, 0.1823 troy oz, (5.670 grams). The diameter is 0.955 inches (24.26 mm), and the width of 0.069 inches (1.75 mm). The coin has a 0.069-inch (1.75 mm) reeded (or milled) edge.[4] Owing to the introduction of the clad quarter in 1965, it was occasionally called a "Johnson Sandwich" after Lyndon B. Johnson, the US President at the time.[5] As of 2011, it cost 11.14 cents to produce each coin.[6] The U.S. Mint began producing silver quarters again in 1992 for inclusion in the annual Silver Proof set. Early quarters (before 1828) were slightly larger in diameter and thinner than the current coin.

The current regular issue coin is the Washington quarter, featuring George Washington on the obverse. The reverse featured an eagle prior to the 1999 50 State Quarters Program. The Washington quarter was designed by John Flanagan. It was initially issued as a circulating commemorative, but was made a regular issue coin in 1934.

In 1999, the 50 State quarters program of circulating commemorative quarters began. These have a modified Washington obverse and a different reverse for each state, ending the former Washington quarter's production completely.[7] On January 23, 2007, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 392 extending the state quarter program one year to 2009, to include the District of Columbia and the five inhabited US territories: Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the United States Virgin Islands, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The bill passed through the Senate and was signed into legislation by President George W. Bush as part of Pub.L. 110–161: the Consolidated Appropriations Act (text) (pdf), on December 27, 2007.[8][9] The typeface used in the state quarter series varies a bit from one state to another, but is generally derived from Albertus.

On June 4, 2008, a bill titled America's Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008, H.R. 6184, was introduced to the House of Representatives. On December 23, 2008, President Bush signed the bill into law as Pub.L. 110–456 (text) (pdf). The America the Beautiful quarters program began in 2010 and will continue for 12 years.[10]

I think a lot of people are going to make a lot of money during the opening up.

The REITs and other large entities already have already made a ton. See: The Great Reset. It's a book now.

We're seeing a consistency, honesty, and messaging problem across government agencies. The Fed wasn't worried about inflation, now they are. The virus did not come from a lab, well maybe it did.
When the press is using your worst photos, they're obviously making you look like a dunce:

this is one of the cheapest and most insidious practices in modern journalism and
yet another indicator that they are just hamming it for the clicks

it's shameful

This is from January.


I'm looking for where it was reported that they knew the source was from a wet market and for sure it wasn't from the lab.

The funny thing is they still don't know.

Did anyone ever say for sure they knew?

They do the same things to black guys who got shot by cops but in reverse.

It's a photo of their 7th b-day.

I'd go back through St. Fauci's, Marc Lipsitch's, and David Gorski's comments over the past year and the WHO report and draw your own conclusions. That'll give you a good perspective on the messaging from our Betters. Either way, they could've just been lying:

That seems like a backpedal. The usual suspects were hammering us with the media-driven talking points about there being no evidence of lab origin last year. I think you should direct your research to statements from a year ago, not CYA now. I posted this a couple of months ago:
Here's what I was able to find from US sources ( non-Fox News, non-NY Post) a year ago:
We're investigating (April 2020):
Lots of denials from China:
Denials from those who've worked in China:
Not man made (April 2020):
Maybe (May 2020):
Unlikely (May 2020):
It's a right wing conspiracy theory (May 2020):
Same:
"Intelligence" agencies (May 2020):
"Pure Fabrication" (paywalled, late May 2020):

Interesting how hard it is to find news from a year ago.

"Pure Fabrication" (paywalled, late May 2020):

Yeah, I saw that one too.

But was that coming from the FEDs?

I'm not disagreeing.

It's a conspiracy theory (2020) + backpedaling (2021):

In case you haven't noticed, the FEDs are not good for a whole lot. Some of us have seen the sausage made.
