    Would like a few opinions on the state of this 2015 quarter and 1976 half dollar. Are they “keep-worthy”?

    The quarter is a scratch. Toss it.

    You really think so? It looks to be raised meaning it was a crack in the die.

    I was thinking a die crack. The line looks too crooked for a scratch. Then I noticed the rims. Can you get clear closeups of both runs where the crack or scratch is?

    Looks like a stain on the half but better pics would be helpful.

    The quarter shows displaced metal on the sides of the scratch

    Either way, on the Quarter, if its a scratch (indented) go find a Pac Man machine and have some fun reliving them glory days!!! If its a die crack however(raised) its a keeper in my opinion, and a cool one at that. Rim to rim die crack. Does look like a scratch though but this is why its often tough to tell some things 100 via posted pics...
