    The horizontal lines in the edge of the coin is the main reason i feel its an adjustment strike coin. The lines are consistent and basically evenly spaced the entire diameter of coin. Any thoughts?

    I do not think your coin is an Adjustment Strike Error. It think the lines on the edge may have been made by the jaws of a lathe that held the coin while the faces were removed with a tool.

    The surfaces on that coin have been ground down. The lines were created by whatever was used to hold the coin to grind it down. The surfaces are to even to be considered a die adjustment strike.

    Here is a die adjustment strike on a 1999 Connecticut state quarter.

    Very nice "Doctor's fingers", though, exhibiting the staining and booboos that can result from practicing the Art, over time.

    Just a badly worn coin. Sorry.
