    Now that you looked I didn't say it was a Mint error. I don't normally do this but I've seen so many of this type before I couldn't resist. I was handed this in change a few days ago. I looked at it and I'm sure the clerk knew something was wrong by the expression on my face. Lol

    These are the best photos I could get but do there is no mistake, this is a LOUISIANA Quarter.

    I'm willing to laugh and listen to any ideas as to how this error, err I mean damage occurred. Just laugh with me.

    I hear that but I have to know what caused this error. Did it get stuck in one of the coining machines?

    How did that one escape inclusion among the 100 greatest?

    I just got it last Friday. I don't think it made the cut.

    It almost looks like it served a few years as a really, really small manhole cover.

    It sure did. I was shocked when he handed it to me. It's the most beatup coin I've ever had.

    I been thing of the worst way to destroy a coin in the most unlikely way.....

    In a pocket of someone at a carnival ride and while upside down the coin fell out and land in the Mechical works and had the results that you have... lol

    The last time I went to a carnival. I thought I could half the ride but I guess my age caught up with me really fast while being fringed upside down. I’m good a the “ though a ball into a fish bowl and win the fish” Lol.

    I haven't done that since I was in 3rd or 4th grade. I got my goldfish though.
