[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3553158, member: 77814"]Welcome to CT On the Front / Obverse, you'll notice that line going around just the inside of the rim/edge. That is from a coin rolling machine. It was an outside quarter at one time when put in those paper/cardboard tubes and the machines' paper roller scraped against it and created that line around it (this could have occurred multiples time, we don't know). It damaged all the letters around the edge too as you can see. Most people ignore learning about damage. AS more than likely you'll find damaged coins and not "errors". As you learn more about errors you'll also learn what should be damaged. The hardest part of all of this is being unbiased, as most ppl desire and want their coin to be an error and thus sometimes fail to learn. People tend to forget that coins are made for commerce, and go through many processes that damage them (check your purse or pocket change for examples). Also, since coins are metal, they all corrode/surface changes color just like your car does if it was not painted. [ATTACH=full]944389[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
