Your quarter is a 1983 and it suffers from environmental damage and toning and it is worth only face value. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19285 Posts	Posted 02/21/2021 07:38 am Agree, coin's appearance is due to exposure to environmental agents. I've seen a few examples over the decades; yours is one of the better ones. If you like it, keep it. The quarter could be worth a dollar or two to someone who loves to collect interesting looking damaged coins. Report this Post to the Staff
