Try figuring this out, "The Monty Hall Math Problem"

This is a little different take on an old math problem commonly known as the "Monty Hall Math Problem"

I've placed three quarters in three identical holes and allowed you to run your detector over them. One is silver, the other two are clad. You can't tell the difference. I ask you to pick one hole to dig. (Pick one, two, or three in your head.) I then dig one hole which you didn't pick, and show you a clad quarter.

Then I ask, "Would you like to change your guess?"

Should you? Answer below and then read the correct answer in the related thread.
