About the 2018 quarter
The 2018 quarter is a regular circulation issue, struck in copper-nickel clad copper, weighing 5.67 g, 24.3 mm across, from a design by John Flanagan. It was struck at Philadelphia, Denver — 1,709,314,000 coins in all, which is why an ordinary example is worth close to face value however well it has been kept.
For scale, 2018 mintage was 33% lower than in 2022 (2,567,600,000 that year) — enough to compare, not enough to change how the coin is valued today.
Denver made the fewest at 829,400,000, against 879,914,000 from Philadelphia. The mints are within the same order of magnitude, so on this date the mint mark does far less to the price than condition does.
This is a recent coin, so there is no meaningful spread yet: circulated examples run from $0.25 to $1.10, and the grading data that separates ordinary coins from exceptional ones has not built up.
Legends on this design — obverse: “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA · IN · GOD WE · TRUST · LIBERTY P · QUARTER DOLLAR”. Reverse: “PICTURED ROCKS · PCB MG”.

How to identify your 2018 quarter
What if it has already been cleaned?
Still identifies the same — you lose the premium. Don't try to fix it.
Where is the mint mark
It sits on the obverse to the right of Washington's ponytail. No letter means Philadelphia — normal, not rare. What the letter means →
Proof and collector versions
Alongside the coins made for circulation, the Mint sold 10 collector versions of the 2018 2018 quarter — proofs and special finishes struck at San Francisco and sold directly in sets. These never entered circulation, so if your coin came out of a till or a jar it is not one of them. They carry an S mint mark and a mirror or satin finish that is obvious next to an ordinary coin. The scarcest was struck in 658,438.

What to do with your 2018 quarter
Don't clean it
Leave the surface alone — see the warning above.
Is it worth grading?
Grading costs roughly $50–100 per coin. Against a mintage of 1,709,314,000 and a best circulated value of $1.10, the fee is more than the coin returns. Keep it raw unless it is exceptional or you suspect a variety.
Where to sell
Dealer: fastest, pays least. Auction: best for coins worth $100+. eBay: most buyers, most fees.

FAQ
How much is a 2018 quarter worth?
A circulated 2018 quarter is worth $0.25 to $1.10 depending on condition and mint mark. It is a recent coin in everyday circulation, so condition is the only thing that moves the price.
How many 2018 quarters were made?
About 1,709,314,000 in total spread across 5 designs — Philadelphia 879,914,000, Denver 829,400,000. That is a large mintage, which is why circulated examples stay inexpensive.
How many different 2018 quarters are there?
5 designs were issued in 2018: Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, Wisconsin, Block Island National Wildlife Refuge, Rhode Island, Cumberland Island National Seashore, Georgia, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Michigan, Voyageurs National Park, Minnesota. Each was struck at Philadelphia and Denver, so a complete set of circulation coins is 10 pieces.
Where is the mint mark on a 2018 quarter?
See “Where is the mint mark” above.
Are there rare 2018 quarter varieties?
No major varieties are catalogued for this date. That does not rule out minting errors on individual coins — off-centre strikes, clipped planchets and doubled dies turn up in any year — but there is no known variety that makes the date itself scarce. With 1,709,314,000 struck, a variety would need to be genuinely rare to stand out from a run this size.
What is the S quarter from 2018?
An S mint mark on a 2018 quarter means a collector coin from San Francisco — 10 proof and special-finish versions were sold in sets rather than released into circulation. The scarcest was struck in 658,438. They are not found in change.
