Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 635 Posts	Posted 10/07/2025 11:04 pm Welcome to Numista! This appears to be a 2014 U.S. quarter dollar commemorating the Great Sand Dunes in the America the Beautiful series (for circulation). If you search online you can find photos of this coin in uncirculated condition. Your specimen appears to have been chemically treated to create substantial dark oxidation on the surface. In this condition it likely has only face value (25 cents). Edited by Seeker55 10/07/2025 11:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21630 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 07:15 am The discolouration, probably from some sort of environmental exposure, would have happened after it left the mint so it would be considered damage. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97208 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 08:18 am to CCF. some very bad environmental toning took place on this coin. Collecting since 1972.

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 1:27 pm Most likely a metal detectorist coin. Different spils produce different staining colors. Nothing in the minting process can possibly make this, so it is post mint damage. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
