Quarter

* Large
* Small

## Store description

A shiny quarter! Useful for anything that requires a shiny quarter!

The **Quarter** is an inventory item from the *Baldi's Basics* series.

## Description

It is a shiny silver coin with George Washington's face on it, appearing identical to a U.S. quarter.

## Usage

There are three ways to use a Quarter:

* Purchasing BSODAs or Energy Flavored Zesty Bars from the vending machines.
* Using the pay phone to throw off Baldi.
* Inserting it in the coin slot before accessing the coin doors.

When the Quarter is used, it will make a coin dropping sound.

## Locations

### General

    The Quarter is one of the most common items to find, as they can be randomly found in faculty rooms and classrooms, usually with other items. They can be bought at Johnny's Store for 25 You Thought Points. It is also one of the five items that can spawn with another item (in faculty rooms), the other four being the Principal's Keys, Dirty Chalk Eraser, Alarm Clock and Safety Scissors.

### Endless Mode - Medium

There are five Quarters. Two of them are in each classroom:

* One with Baldi's Math Machine.
* One with a Grappling Hook.

Three of them are in each faculty room:

* One with a Swinging Door Lock.
* One with Baldi's Least Favorite Tape.
* One with a BSODA.

### Challenges

* In the Speedy Challenge, the Quarter is very common, appearing in both classrooms and faculty rooms.
* In the Stealthy Challenge, the Quarter is absent.
* In the Grapple Challenge, Quarters can be found in the faculty rooms. One Quarter is located in a classroom.

## Other appearances

In all games and demos except for *Baldi's Basics Plus* and *Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered*, Quarters do not make any sound when they are used.

* In *Baldi's Basics Classic*, the Quarter is the first item the player can obtain after answering Baldi's first three math problems correctly from the beginning of the game, and obtaining the first notebook. A Quarter can also be found randomly in hallways and one of the faculty rooms with the Alarm Clock. If the Quarter is not picked up before collecting the second notebook, it will disappear.
* In *Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash*, the Quarter can be randomly found in presents and used for purchasing random items from the Crazy Item machines.
* In *Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered*, the Quarter has the same appearances in *Classic* and *Birthday Bash*. However, in Party Style, there is an unwrapped Quarter randomly in hallways instead of a present. Also, there are three more Quarters wrapped in presents. This is the first time that Quarters make a sound.
* In *Baldi's Basics Full Game Early Demo*, there are three Quarters.
	+ In the faculty room with the Principal's Keys.
	+ In the faculty room next to the coin door.
	+ In the classroom accessed from the hallway with the conveyor belt.

## Trivia

### General

* mystman12 was considering the idea that there would be a separated HUD to keep Quarters. It was later scrapped, due to You Thought Points making it redundant.
* The kind of Quarter used is a 50 State quarter which was released sometime between 1999 and 2008.

### *Baldi's Basics Plus*

* Ironically, a Quarter costs 25 You Thought Points, and a Quarter represents 25 cents in real life.
* As of the current version, the Quarter is the cheapest item in Johnny's Store.
* It is incredibly rare to have three Quarters in a faculty room.
* Prior to V0.3.8, Quarters did not make a sound after being used.

### *Classic*/*Classic Remastered*

* The Quarter and It's a Bully have the same spawn points. This can be seen if the player gives him an item and when he vanishes, there is a small chance a Quarter could be in the exact same position.

### *Baldi's Basics Classic*

* Before V1.3, there were only two Quarters the player could find, one from Baldi, and another in a faculty room.
	+ The feature of Quarters spawning randomly in halls was later implemented in V1.3.

### *Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered*

* There is a small Quarter in the conspiracy board at Baldi's Basement.
