    It looks like someone has ground down the edges of the quarter, as well as gound the reverse smooth. Most likely for some jewelry reason or clothing addition such as a button or decorative attachment to a belt. Or possibly someone did it just to do it. Not a mint error, this was done after it left the mint.

    The circular ring on the reverse appears to be the tooling marks from removing metal with a lathe.

    ......and this was probably done to use it as one-half of a magician's coin.
