    This pocket change quarter caught my eye. Looks like a strike-thru on both sides. Yes or no? Thoughts?

    Yes. Very common on these new quarters, including halves.

    Is it common that both the obv and rev sides of the same coin show evidence of a strike-thru?

    Common? No. Unusual? Yes, but it happens, however this does not increase the value of the coin a considerable amount.

    Ok, cool. If you had to put an approximate value on it, what would you say?

    Not sure because I don't really collect them

    I'd say its fairly common. This is especially noticeable on freshly issued coinage. After it's in circulation, the evidence starts to fade. I found that when I'd find this on nickels, it usually affected both sides of the same coin.
