My favorite place in New Hampshire was the Budweiser Plant in Nashua, ca. 1970. It was a short trip from Ft. Devens, MA and we would go there on...
This coin is exactly what it was intended to be. Something produced by an unimaginative staff for the sole purpose of squeezing every last dime...
Why don't you try it on the reeds of a quarter yourself, and see what happens. It looks to me that a hammer was used on the edge and the obverse...
Jim, I think its great that more women are entering scientific fields that were, heretofore, the realm of men, but how can anyone suggest that...

FWIW, I've been familiar with the term "spooned" for decades, but I never heard the term "dryer coin" until I joined CT about 6 years ago. Chris
