As it turns out, the quarter I posted above is actually on dime stock. In 1970 dimes where 25% nickel, that explains the traces of copper....
The edge of the quarter is very thin. It is reeded and has traces of copper, but not in the center of the edge, closer to the bottom. If it was...

There is actually a law! By an 1866 Act of Congress, no living person can be portrayed on U.S. coins or currency. But this law has been violated a...
