<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrislombardi1, post: 26514, member: 1821&quot;]Greetings!</p><p><br /></p><p>My first post to your discussion forum; I&#039;ve been reading some of the threads and I&#039;m quite impressed with the knowledge base and helpful spirit.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve attached an image of a 1965-P Quarter which I found in circulation.&nbsp; There is a rather deep indentation which doesn&#039;t appear to be post mint damage, and is possibly from debris between the die and the planchet during striking?</p><p><br /></p><p>The saying &quot;a picture is worth a thousand words&quot; probably refers to GOOD pictures (not like the ones I take), so I&#039;ll tack on a couple of more words...</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is has some light circulation wear on the high points, and the would possibly grade in the XF range.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unlike a scratch, dent or gouge, the indentation has no metal displaced (pushed aside).&nbsp; The indentation itself is smooth and quite shiny, and also has well defined edges.&nbsp; There is no damage to the reeding where the indentation meets the rim.&nbsp; Although the indentation is pretty deep, the cladding is intact.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are some very, very light scuffs from a coin counter, which look a lot worse in this picture.&nbsp; Otherwise, there are no other scratches or marks on the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d appreciate your thoughts!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks, and best regards,</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
