    I have been continuing to use http://www.error-ref.com/ as a reference for things that I think may be errors. This quarter is extremely odd and I was hoping for some feedback. It gets even stranger to me when I look at it rotated 90° CW (look at 6 o'clock in the 3rd pic). Weight is normal. What stands out to you the most about this? 20170731_022443.jpg 20170731_022639.jpg 20170731_022911.jpg

    In My Honest Opinion... Your Quarter is PMD - Post Mint Damage

    Fair enough.

    One thing I found interesting is that the third pic somewhat resembles the bottom of Lincoln's bust on the penny. Not saying it is that. Also looks like Washington has a Hulk Hogan mustache, but I don't think that qualifies as an error.

    That would be impossible. Why?... A Quarter planchet would not fit into a Cent chamber to be struck by a Cent Die. What you are seeing is Pareidolia -

    First, that Hogan coin/token is very impressive. And yeah I tend to look at stuff so long and hard that I tend to make weird things appear. Thanks for having a sense of humor about my observations. Now I can just throw that quarter in my jar of weird coins and move on to the next.
