linlu1369 New Member United States 17 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 8:08 pm Hi everyone. I have a odd question. I found a 1979 no mint no face quarter. To me it looks like it was off struck a little.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21676 Posts	Posted 10/15/2022 8:25 pm Definitely PMD, looks like it has been ground down. It is impossible for that to happen during the striking of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

This one would be a spender for me.
