[QUOTE="Multisingularit, post: 776531, member: 22452"]Well, right now I am trying to figure out exactly what is up with this coin. Looking at it, it appears normal (side is dual) except all the lines are bolder and darker and the font appears to be in some way different, though it's hard to tell exactly how. The letters in Liberty push right up against the outer edge as well as the numbers in 1965. The 6 in 1965 is literally cut off by the rim of the coin. The other side has the same phenomenon occurring, whereas "Dollar" is running right along the edge with no space at all beneath it, unlike a regular quarter. Aside from that it's really hard to say what other differences exist. It just doesn't feel right. When I first found it, I thought it was a silver quarter as it felt lighter, though when weighed it is of regular mass. When I give the coin to other people to compare, they have a similar response.
