Coin Value Checker explains that the 2003 Illinois quarters are part of the state honored series. These coins in good condition can be worth more than 3,200 times their normal value according to Coin Value Checker which says one was just auctioned for $820. One of these rare coins was found and just shared on YouTube just a few weeks ago.

A YouTube video by The Roaming Nelsons shows the coin in detail and how it was almost sold for $20 at a coin store. However, the coin store owner recognized the error and suggested getting it graded which could fetch a high price.
