Just a normal, really rough, Jefferson nickel.
Really damaged quarter, pictures are not great but it looks like some bubbling due to heat damage.
Did you read this thread? If it is a circulated coin just spend it, there is no collector value.
Someone just stamped it, nothing like that could happen at the mint.
Sure post some pictures, we should be able to help.
I think you will have to be more specific about what kind of expert looked at the coin, and what did he or she do to come to this conclusion....
Looks like a normal quarter with 35 years worth of wear and abuse.
No cents in 1966 had a mint mark, so that is normal. Weak letters on the reverse is nothing special either. Could be 52 years of wear, or they...
Nah, that is just badly damaged.
That is what a nice circulated war nickel is supposed to look like. 73 years of patina!
Not a real quarter, note on the obverse it says "close quarters".
If that is the actual color of the coin, it looks like it has been plated.
It is in a little rough shape, but still worth the silver value. I think that is just a little over a dollar at the present.
It looks coppery on the lettering and date on the obverse. I don't believe a cent with the copper plating missing should be shiny, all I have...
Yup, like CoinCorgi pointed out, 1963 to 1982 cents were brass.
The coin is probably just slightly heavy. It would only have to be .16 over to round up to the 12 grams, this would still be within mint tolerance.
Sure, lots of them. Quality control was not very good in some of the private mints making colonials. As long as they would circulate there was...
It is worth a quarter, just a normal quarter that has been painted. If painting made them valuable everyone would be painting their quarters!
So I take it that you now concede that it is just glue?
That would be a fake trade dollar. Genuine ones were not minted until 1873 so the date is a dead giveaway.
