Nope, its not even letting me get to any files to optimize or not on size and popups are turned on. Ive read the directions, it says to click on the green camera and a screen pops up. It does nothing for me. I'm not sure what else to try. :-( Sorry.

@cricketmd, ok now you've got the pics uploaded! Welcome to CCF!

That coin looks squished to me--much like coins left on railroad tracks, although the flattening is oddly concentrated around the periphery (rather than being over the entire face of the coin). I'm still thinking PMD, but will be interested to hear what others say.

thanks it was hard to explain, not sure how it would be made so thin and consistently thin. I was wondering if someone dropped it in some acid or something. lol

I agree with Spence, looks like it was placed on a railroad. What is its width?

Definitely not an acid coin in my opinion. See these links for a couple prior threads showing coins with that type of damage:

FYI - an ATB Quarter should be 24.3 mm in width. 1 inch = 25.4 mm

I agree that it was smooshed somehow, although I'd expect the diameter to have expanded if so. Cool coin; would definitely go into my "cool PMD (Post Mint Damage) jar"
