To each their own, but its literally just a quarter. Pocket change. But hey, if it makes you feel some type of way, more power to ya!

Assuming your quarter has a "P" mintmark, it is probably plated, but plated to the point where Coinstar detected either a different weight or composition and rejected it
I thought so, it was showing no clad layer on the sides I just didn't know if that was particular with this coin or not. First one I've found so far, thank you!
I've found a state quarter (I forgot what state, I think 08') in pocket change in like 2010, that got me excited thinking it was a silver quarter. (Until the confusion seeing the mintmark) It's also a P and weights in at 2.51 g. First and only one I've seen in change. It looks like any normal quarters surface and I think the same mint luster minus some in circulation.
It doesn't look plated. I've been looking on info for years on what could cause this (that isn't plating).
