Hey all, I am new to the site been lurking for a while and usually find an answer quickly but can't seem to find anything on this. I found a kentucky quarter yesterday and it appears to be missing the outer layer on both sides, any information would be appreciated. Sorry for the crappy pictures, I should be able to put some better ones up later tonight if need be.
Welcome to the forum. your quarter is probably toned to this copper color. I doubt if both clad layers would be missing . our clad coins and even the newer nickel coins will tone to a dark copper color if left out in the elements of nature.
And if you really want to be sure just weigh it. If it was missing both layers it would weigh about 3 grams.
