    No sir I haven’t ever seen a corroded silver coin that’s why I never even looked at the coin all that good to begin with.. I understand why u guys think it’s impossible because I did too but these pics give it no justice holding it and looking at it with the human eye makes all the difference... wish I could video it and post it but u guys don’t do the videos of coins do u?? And when I prove that it is real By getting it graded, and when I sell it i am going to donate to your website for all your guys help...for real

    @JanieB$$ - that is the second time you have posted a profanity. Please be aware of the forum rules, specifically Rule #1. You got a pass on the first one. I had to give you points this time.

    As to your coin, until you post a picture of the edge you won't be convincing anyone. You're at least the second person to claim to have one of these coins (which was probably a unique, one of a kind error to begin with), and the last person wouldn't show the edge of their coin, either.

    If you post the picture of the edge, we can save you the hassle and expense of grading it, since you don't want to go wasting $40-50 to submit a coin worth a quarter.

    As to videos, they are really not optimal for evaluating coins, but if you do have video and want to post it here, that can be done. If your video is uploaded to YouTube, you can embed it here using the little "filmstrip" icon on the toolbar when you're in message post mode. If the video shows the edge of the coin long enough, in good enough light, we can get that out of the way, at least.

    Like the others I only see a normal corroded quarter. Virtually no chance it is struck on a silver Canadian quarter. Anxiously awaiting edge pics though.

    I’m sorry, but I can’t see anything in your pics.

    Please keep this in mind if you plan to spend the $50+ for authentication, shipping/insurance etc. and send it to a reputable TPG. Your claim is such a unique coin the TPGs are going to ask experts to provide input. One of the leading experts used by PCGS and NGC for error coins has already provided his input in this post. I believe he may have been involved with the authentication of the 1970-S Struck proof on the 1941 Canadian Quarter as well (and would be very surprised if he wasn’t consulted). So, he just saved you $50+. Use it towards a good dinner or bottle of wine.

    There are significant writeups about this coin. Such as this => http://www.coinbooks.org/esylum_v19n24a17.html

    You may want to obtain a 1941 Canadian Quarter, and then compare the design elements to what you think you see. There should be numerous design elements. Maybe have your quarter professionally restored to get rid of all the gunk which can make false visual identifiers too (or expose more identifiers).

    also, a picture of the side edge of the coin would help.

    FYI, I would ignore all those youtube videos of making it rich with pocket change. Do a bunch of reading and learn about the minting process and then errors. FYI, personally, I don't collect errors.

    But, I don't see anything myself but I'm certainly no expert.
    As mentioned, "the" top expert has already replied.

    So this person disappeared without ever posting a picture of the coin's edge.

    Exactly like the last person who claimed to have one of these.

    Hm.

    Dead crickets at that. I cannot comprehend the pleasure in taking so much of ones own personal time just to try deceiving a group of people. It's madness.

    But I promise you, it's the real deal.
    Never even had a shred of doubt, since this coin can't really exist.
    There is one known 1970-S US quarter struck on a 1941 Canadian.
    Whether on purpose or by accident, the 1941 Canadian had to be introduced
    somehow into the coining process.
    And do you really think, someone at the mint in Denver in 1970, is also going to throw
    a 1941 Canadian into the process, and let that coin circulate for almost 50 years,
    (not make a profit out of it) just for some perverted laughs?
    OK that makes sense. (rolls eyes).

    Well, she(?) kindly offered to donate it to CoinTalk, which was nice of her, but this way she doesn't have to spend twice the coin's value on the stamp she would have needed to mail it.

    What you are describing really isn't possible. On a Canadian quarter, the caribou is on the Reverse, but you see the man's head, which is on the Obverse of both coins.

    Then you say that, on your coin's Obverse, that you can see the bottom of the man's neck .. both of the portraits are on the Obverse side. So you can't have a reverse/obverse understrike on one side of your coin and an obverse/obverse understrike on the other side of your coin.

    Also, weighing a well-circulated coin means nothing .. a worn coin, even to VF, will weigh significantly less than an UNC coin. Also, I once saw Jesus on a piece of partially burnt toast.

    People see videos on YT and then they come in here to have fun with the coin nerds.
    "I have a 1943 copper penny." "I have a 1982-D small date copper." "I have a 1983-D off metal copper planchet error." "I have a 1970 quarter struck on a 1941 Canadian." And then, hilarity ensues as the coin nerds get all bunged up explaining to them, they don't have what they claim, or think they have. All the while the poster is smirking at their betrollery.
