    I see the CEN but........

    1) It can't be a strike over a cent, since that can't happen (a quarter planchet in a cent die);
    2) the N is reversed.
    3) post mint priduct.
    4) the marks on the eagle's wing?
    Most likely post mint damage.

    it is 1989 d you can feel and see that it is a piece of metal. i think it is part of a penny ? with a glass you can see part of the t as well. along the eagles neck. it is upside down and backward.

    No not worth verified

    No not worth verified - I can verify it right here - it's made by hammering one coin on another, post mint damage.

    basicly :) they can make for a small conversation piece, but not worth anything. and it the quarter had been worth something before being hammered, its not worth anyhthing now.

    Welcome wayne d :hail: to the forum. I agree with Treashunt. Any chance it could be an adhesive? Like if a cent was glued to it once? Are the letters raised?

    I think the "answer fact" is that. Are the letters raised or Incuse?
