Found an old Quarter... looks to be an error coin.

It's a 1934 P with a backwards 3 and the P is not normally on quarters. Very interesting silver quarter found at an old park.

Hey, looks to actually be a 1984. Check the rims... you should see some copper coloring...

I have to agree with testing123. It does look more like an 8 to me.
The "known" 1934 errors are in the motto not the date.

However, I'm no expert by any means so get someone with a good loupe to verify.

I like the other finds, to include some wheats and silver.
I apologize to be the bearer of bad news but the quarter looks like a 1984-P to me as well. Silver will have a more whitish color than copper nickel clad. Also as others have noted, in the edge you will have a coppery color on clad. On Washington Quarters the mintmark was not put on the obverse (heads) until 1968 (after the change to copper nickel clad), and the P mint mintmark was not used on quarters until 1980.
Happy Hunting.
