    does look like a bit of doubling, but the coin is so beat up i can tell if it's more then just MD and the incuse lettering before liberty looks like a vise job

    All i see is a badly damaged beat up quarter and what looks like a small vise job.

    It is intriguing in that there are very evident letters near the L in LIBERTY.

    I think the OP is referring to what is to the right of the L along the rim. There are incused, backwards letters, and the imprint of a coins edge extending to below IGWT. Damaged after it left the mint, by someone sqeezing another coin onto the other. Not an error

    All I see is a slightly off center!

    I think a better picture of the obverse is needed so we can see if those letters are incused or in relief. It is likely from the damage but a better picture doesn’t hurt.

    That coin is so beat up it looks like a cast copy. The rim is all I can see on the obverse and that was from a worn out tired die.
     
  12. I know. I had a garage sale today and that was one of the quarters someone gave me. I got excited because I'm always looking for a error coin

    Appears to have been a squeeze job, coin on each side and then squeezed in a vice, before it was damaged in circulation. Not an error, in my opinion. But please keep it so it doesn't turn up in circulation and then back here again.

    I agree on the Vice squeeze. Welcome to Coin talk.

    I would be willing to bet that quarter is Silver

    Yep, vise job all the way. The only real mystery would be what type of other coin was involved. I can't make heads or tails out of it.

    Welcome to CT. What leads you to believe this is silver? 1964 and before was silver.
    I think many here would bet against you.
     
  18. I know all i can make out is a R and a E and maybe a U
