Is this unusual, or do coins often miss something in stamping? Worth anything?   03-10-2005, 05:09 PM   #2 (permalink) Speedy Researching Coins     Join Date: Mar 2004 Posts: 11,590 My Mood: Sir I found one too and it seems to be one of the most found grease filled die quarters around. I don't know what they are worth as I gave mine to a friend.

Is this unusual, or do coins often miss something in stamping? Worth anything? As Speedy said, it is probably a "filled die" strike, resulting from grease or other foreign material getting into the die. Circulated state quarters are almost never worth more than 25¢, noticeable scratches reduces the numismatic value of any coin, and non-spectacular filled die errors seldom carry any premium. Bottom line recommendation - use it in a Coke machine. __________________ Roy   03-10-2005, 09:27 PM   #4 (permalink) bobbycoin Member   Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: The Magical Land Of Cubicles, Ca.

I took it to a local coin dealer, and he magnified it a whole lot, and terermined that it was scratched off, very carefully. Because with the naked eye, you coulnt see a scratch.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk? Coin Talk Code of Honor 1.
