1952 Quarter Value
$5.24 is the minimum 1952 quarter value. It is the underlining silver price moving your coin to this level.
Other elements do contribute to raising the value higher, particularly the condition of your coin and finding the "S" mintmark.
Beginning with the mintmark. Three mints produced Washington quarters in 1952, Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco. Those minted in San Francisco are worth a premium today because of low mintage totals.
The next challenge is determining the condition of your old quarter. Most commonly found worn, see if your coin is in a higher more collectible "Uncirculated" condition, and compare it to the "Grading" images below.
A popular series with collectors and elusive in the higher grades, your 1952 quarter is worth a close examination.
"1952-S" on the coin value chart is a Washington quarter minted in 1952 at the San Francisco Mint.

"Grading" Finds 1952 Quarter Value
The condition images are lined up to show the different stages of wear on a Washington quarter. The descriptions define the "Grade" and highlight the subtle details to consider.
Hopefully this reveals a higher grade and your 1952 quarter value is well above the minimum.
Uncirculated: The top grade in both quality and value, requires close examination to confirm. Inspect the highest points of design and the fine details for evidence of wear. It is most noticeable as a dulling of the surface and breaks in the mint luster.
Extremely Fine: Still sharply defined with abundant detail remaining. Examine the high points of the hair, curls above the ear, including the cheek and neck line for minimum wear. The coin should standout from the rest as clearly detailed.
Fine: From the chin and extending up and through the hair the details have worn flat, also reaching into the curls above the ear. Coins in this grade give the impression of worn, but not overly so.
Good: All the major details show but very flattened by wear. The tops of the letters have begun to merge into the rim. It is the silver content that brings the value to $3.27 . Most circulated Washington quarters in the 1950's trade at or near this price.
