    Hello to all: As new to this forum and site, I have this little problem with a coin I just recieved. Upon receiving change I noticed I had a Two Headed Quarter. On one side it is dated 1990 with mint "P" and the other side is 1991 with mint "D". Any help with this will be welcomed.

    It is a novelty piece, made by machining two real quarters and essentially fitting one inside another. Usually they're made as magic props.

    Welcome to the forum, and as Jhonn stated, a novelty piece.
    there is little or no value, except on eBay.

    As to no value try buying one. If you go to magic web sites or a magic supply store you'll find them and not exactly cheap. Some aea sold at coin shows as a novelty and they are not cheap. So when you hear no value, don't believe it. The process to make them alone is rather expensive and then there is the magic stores profit. Regardless they are all worth several dollars and some made really well go for more than that.

    No matter how much they cost to make, the coins used lose 100% of their numismatic value when they are machined.
