    But Washington Quarters don't have denticles. Are you saying those were carved by hand?

    Today I was looking at the newest WINS auction and for the first time saw a south Africa shilling. I looked at it again and thought that it sure looked like this coin so I came to see it again and saw that someone already guessed it!!!
