Has anyone seen something like this? Idk what this is....1965 Washington quarter misprint?

Looks to be a donkey like print above the 2nd R in the word quarter. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you

The mint is coming to reclaim this rare treasure.

 

What do you think it is? I can't find anything online

 

Looks like a chop-like punch = damage.

 

Not if the cajuns find out about it first.

So it's not a print. Somebody punched it on there?

 

Coins are struck not printed. Paper Currency is printed.
I see nothing..

 

Sorry wrong terminology. Still learning.....

 

To be an error it would have to leave the mint like this.
It's likely that this was done post mint.

 

First, welcome to the neighborhood @MC511 !

Your query is nothing unusual. We get people coming here all the time who think they have found something rare. The problem is that they aren't familiar with the minting process and don't know what the coins should and shouldn't look like.

You also have to realize that the physical condition of coins in circulation can take on all sorts of strange shapes just from contact with other coins. Your coin falls into this category and is considered post mint damage.

Thank you. Yeah I just came across that term a few minutes ago. Been trying to learn more about coins. I appreciate your help.
