    The six and the zero don't look the same. How could that be ?

    I agree. I’m not aware of any mint process that would cause a 1960 US quarter to have denticles.

    That is a fake. looks way to "bumpy" to be real. walk away from that.

    The following site has a list of books on error coins: https://www.google.com/search?q=boo...ome.0.69i59.9137j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
    Some are better than others. Error coin collectors could advise you of which books are better. Ask @paddyman98; @JCro57; @Fred Weinberg; et al.
    Edit. @JCro57 recently wrote a book called "Mint Errors to Die For". Contact him if you're interested.

    I agree with the others that the coin is no good.

    @Vess1 who is offering this for sale?

    Vess1 leave it there! It's a "Chinese fake Knockoff" worth about $1.00 at best as a keychain fob for conversation.
