Looks like they got knocked off! PMD

 

Yep. Those were knocked off. Probably the victim of the fingers of a coin rolling machine. That's one of the most damaged areas by rolling machines. They can shear the letters completely off the face of the coin.

 

I agree with the guys.. PMD Post Mint Damage. The quarter has been in circulation so long that you can't see the scrape or damage because it probably wore away.

 

If you like quarters, look especially close at the 80's-90's as there are a lot with die cracks on the left wing on the reverse.

 

Wish I had a dollar for every PMD thread I've seen.

 

Coin rolling machine, typical damage from one.

 

You don't want much, do you? I'd be willing to take 1c.

Yeah. You'd have more money than God.

 

We do see a lot of damaged coins. I take it as a good thing. The more we see the more we learn. Years ago, most folks didn't have someone close to ask. I know I saved a lot of stuff thinking it had some type of error value. I'll take a half a cent.

 

Well thanks for the info guys

 

PMD indeed
