look at the same spot on the right of the eagle is flat but the left side is not if you look long enough you can probably see just about anything.It looks like something was wrong in the mix metal did not form properly and remember don't clean your coins if you plan on selling them. I posted 3 1997 that had major damage it was a bad year for Quarters maybe we should have a contest to see who has the worst 1997 Quarter.

 

I see numerous contact/bag marks from it being
in circulation. It's also stained (at a minimum)
in that area

No doubled tail, from what I can see......sorry

 

Are you sure you didn't splash some of that cleaning solution in your eyes by accident?

You cleaned it?
Now it's only worth about 12 1/2 Cents

 

It didn't matter it was damaged already so I just wanted to show people if they can see what I see lol

 

Here is something to remember during your search for errors and varieties. It's very difficult to confirm a real error on a beat up coin since the damage can hide or mimic what you think you see. Best thing to do is avoid the beat up coins until you have a good understanding of the minting process and how errors occur. Not saying you can't find errors on heavily damaged coins, it's just very hard to tell the difference if you're a new collector

Hope this helps

 

Thanks for the feedback
