Yeah sorry I was slightly incorrect please see my new response.

 

Oh we know what you meant. We just think it's "just pure bad".

 

Ok. Yeah I think this is a unique coin, like how can a coin get that damaged but still look good(?to my eyes)

 

One thing I've always respected is collectors who collect what they like as opposed to what's in style or what think others want them to. If you like that coin or others like it, as long as you understand what it truly is and that no knowledgeable individual will pay up for such a thing, there isn't a darn thing wrong with it and/or with collecting them.

 

Thank you

 

You're very welcome, young fellow.

Knowledge is absolute key to success in this hobby, so absorb all you can (and confirm independently before believing it) and don't be afraid to ask questions. Sometimes folks can be a tad brash here, so take nothing personally, but as long as you be yourself and are sincere, everyone will see and respect you for it. Again, welcome to the forum, Tangerine.

 

WOW thank you even more!!! But how did you know I was a "Young Fellow"?

 

Your profile.

 

Oh ok then. Have a nice rest of your evening.

 

You too, sir.

 

I'd show how I could reproduce this unique coin with my unique hammer and unique hammering technique. But I'd have to damage a perfectly good quarter.

 

?

 

I'm just trying to understand your statement.. so you are saying it's unique?.. even though it's clearly a bad damaged coin? ok... Welcome to CoinTalk

 

It might be damaged but it's still interesting to me. And thank you, I'm happy to be apart of this knowledgeable community.

 

Good for you.. as long as you know the difference between a damaged coin and a true Mint error then you will be fine.
I want to share this website with you - http://www.error-ref.com/
There is a lot to learn

 

Ok thanks. I'll look at that link

 

@TangerineCoin . I think you took the flak by saying to the OP that he may find a collector to pay a little extra for his coin. Obviously from the responses, you understand that isn't going to happen, so there is no sense in giving people false hope.

Books gave a nice summary and I highlighted what I think is the key

 

Oh, I see your point now. Thank you for making me realize my mistake. Goodbye, kind sir.
