    Welcome to CT @Paul Rendon, as already stated, it appears the quarter was struck through grease, thus missing parts of the lettering. It can happen when the mint allows the oil and debris from normal operating process to get packed into the recesses of the die, preventing metal flow. It is not uncommon, so NAV, no added value, IMHO. Some collect the ones that have the T removed in TRUST, but other than that, worth face value.

    Also Paul, this is something I post for newbies. Hope it helps.
    For the best results, you should post "in focus," FULL IMAGE photos (after you upload your photo, two buttons appear: Thumbnail and Full Image, click Full Image and your photo appears full size on your post and are easily enlarged by clicking on it). Photograph coins on neutral backgrounds like black, grey, or white. Crop out superfluous background so just the coin shows (you can use https://www.remove.bg for free), and post photos with correct orientation so members don't have to turn their computer in some awkward fashion to view it properly. While it isn’t always necessary, it is nice to show both the obverse and reverse, even if your question is just about one side. Members can often give more valuable information having both sides to evaluate. Add close ups of areas you have questions about and make your questions as definitive as possible so we know what you are asking for. And try to have the best lighting possible to show the most favorable photo of the coin. Hope this helps in the future. Good luck.
