One 1964 or earlier silver quarter= 0.1808 of an ounce of silver. So, it takes about 6 90% silver quarters to make one ounce of silver. 6 silver quarters= 1.0851 ounces.
Early on, the silver coins had different percentages of silver than what we know of today. The half dime, which as the 5 cent coin of that period, contained 89.24% silver. The first dimes, quarters, half dollars and dollar coins of the time also contained 89.24% silver. This seemingly odd percentage of silver continued for these coins until 1837 for dimes, 1838 for quarters, 1836 for half dollars and 1837 for silver dollar coins. The change was mandated by The Law of January 18, 1837 to 412 1/2 grains in weight and .900 fineness.
