<p>[QUOTE="davidh, post: 1223153, member: 15062"]A quarter is 1.843 times the area of a dime. A quarter sized blank cut from dime stock would weigh 1.843 times a dime's weight of 2.27g, or about 4.18g. I believe yours is, indeed, a quarter stamped on dime stock. The ring and "reeding" on the obverse are indicative of damage from a coin roller. Just guessing, I would say this was an extra coin in the end of a roll and the resulting extra pressure of the machinery doing the rolling caused the marks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
