I wonder how something like this even happens. Did they restamp over the top of the original reverse or I suppose someone left in a dime die when...
Weird, it seems really clean (if grainy) so I figured someone had acid washed it or something... Thanks!

Ok, this one has stumped me. Any idea why this quarter is so grainy? Even the letters are. Did somebody dump this in vinegar or something? Thanks...
:D
Thanks! I'm definitely appreciating all the help people are providing in here. I'm new to coin collecting, but I'm pretty sure I'm hooked. :)
This was an interesting one. Odd how both 9's look partially filled in a similar way. Is this a die break or something else? o_O Thanks for any...

No such luck so far :) I went through my whole jar ($34 in pennies) before I started posting these pics. I think you guys are right - with the...
Thanks!
Interesting. Because of the discoloration on the stairs where the line exits?
Closest I can figure on this is a die gouge? The line seems to go through the memorial but is not shown on top of the memorial itself. Or is this...
Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. Molar extractions suck in the first place - only been through one but it wasn't pleasant. Winding up in the ER from...
