I just pulled this 2019 D Mariana Island quarter out of a Mint Roll. looks like a Grease Strike causing the "it" in the word United to be missing. What do you guys think is this a keeper. Will there be any value to it other than just .25
looks beat up and stained, will never be worth more than face, its a spender, get your quarters worth out of it now..
Thanks for your input. but im surprised that this quarter has not been circulated and it looks like that.
Alurid...in your opinion, what kind of debris might cause that type of damage? One thing I see (which means nothing) is it looks like the bottom of the “I” was sitting lower than the “N”, had it been a good strike. Thanks for teaching us newbies!
I always say Debris instead of Grease. Grease is specific and most folks know what it is, But that is not what is meant by using the word "Grease". Please read for better explanation. http://www.error-ref.com/struck-through_metal_dust__shavings/
It's known as a greaser. It's common and was struck through grease or other debris or dirt on the Die. Only worth face value. The Quarter is a 2019. It was released about 2 months ago, if that. It hasn't had a chance to circulate enough to show wear. It does have a small amount of damage from taking hits. Probably bag marks. Nice to plug a hole in a cheap album but never worth more than $.25. Welcome to CT.
