Message:: [QUOTE="Dan305, post: 8210499, member: 135231"]I have a VF standing liberty quarter that has/had a finned rim on the right half of the obverse.  The very top and bottom of the fin, where it was thinnest, have folded over to lie on top the real rim (as above R in LIBERTY and above the left leg of the Y[ATTACH=full]1440304[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1440305[/ATTACH] ).  The central portion has worn down from circulation into a flat, elevated "extra rim" as above the right leg of the Y in LIBERTY and clockwise from there) and has in fact protected the "reed and bead" border on that side of the coin from wear.  My questions are -- 1. Is this a proper analysis of what I have here and what happened over time?  and 2. Does anyone have any experience with PCGS, NGC, CONECA on whether this would be termed a "Mint Error" or whether ir would be chalked up to "Rim Damage"?[ATTACH=full]1440304[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1440305[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
