    The color is most likely from Environmental Damage in 33 year of circulation.

    Coins can tone/stain any number of colors. Who knows what that or any coin has been through since it was minted. Normal quarter.

    You can always weigh it. 5.67 grams. That will be a good gauge.
    Since it looks like a complete quarter, it's probably not struck on a foreign planchet as 99% of them are different size/ weight/ metal composition from US coins. Your rim seems intact which is another sign it's normal.
    And let's say it was struck on a Panama coin blank which was the same size and weight and composition, there would be no way to tell.bv
    If you are saying this coin was struck over a foreign coin, that's much different than being struck on a foreign planchet, and no it wasn't.

    There is absolutely no doubling on the quarter. Explain to me how you think it’s both a DDO or DDR. Failure to do that in your next post gets you on my ignore list. You’re demonstrating to me that you’re just trolling because your life isn’t interesting enough to do something more productive with your time. This is rather borin and old.

    Dude, why do you ask the same question a hundred times? Why multiple posts for the same coins?

    Have you learned a single thing in the past three months?

    Does anyone know of a documented example of an American coin minted on a foreign planchet ?

    I'm unaware. Why/how would that happen? Just curious.

    A planchet can get stuck in mint Machinery or stuck in a bin as planchets are transported. Then a whole new batch of planchets comes in, it becomes loose, and it's now on the way for the dies to strike it

    The US mint also makes coins for foreign countries.
    So US coins have been minted on foreign planchets. Size and weight is a factor.
    And the year should match up with the year they made the foreigns of similar size/weight/color and metal content.

    You know , DUHHH, I should slap myself. I knew our mints made coins for other countries. I don't know why I drew a blank on that.
    Panama
    the Philippines
    I have many examples of both of these.

    Thanks for the patience.

    Send the whole group of coins you've recently posted to PCGS to be graded. You'll have more than enough money to pay for college education and be able to get a degree in English and Creative Writing.

    Don't be silly, folks; it's obviously struck over a 93-S Morgan. After all our friend Young Mag can do....



    Even if only in the deep dark depths of his mind.
