Indiana here and I've never heard of this term before.

@Starpolisher 

 

Never heard it and have no idea what it is supposed to be saying, if anything.

a “case quarter” means a quarter—a 25-cent piece—as opposed to other coins that make up 25 cents.  I don't know where it started

Today, a friend of mine, used the expression "case quarter."  I had never in my 67 years heard that expression before! Just wondering if it's a common expression where you live? 🤔

Could she have meant "close quarters"? I've heard people say that, when they lived close to someone. or the room was small.Pa, Md, WV.

Just curious as to why you did not ask your friend.  How did she use that expression?

 

Ive lived all over the US and never heard that one before.
