It has copy stamped on the front of it, what does this mean?

From your description you appear to have a souvenir and not an official US coin. Why someone would make copies of the Missouri quarter I do not know. Of course it could be a real coin that someone stamped with the word copy for some unknown reason also. I would not think it would have much value either way.

There are joke type state quarter replicas out there. There is one from Texas with Bush trying to rope an a Arab. The obverse looks quite real, so to keep the Secret Service from getting upset, they are marked copy, even though the reverse is different than the state quarter's reverse. So your reverse must have a saying or something different, than on the real thing. BD in NM has the right idea and is right about price, as a coin collector item. As a fun thing, I think they sell for $4.95 or so.

It means that it can be worth a lot in the future, keep it. Or you could sell it to me for less than what it would eventually be worth.
