Believe it or not I actually got this in some change at the local gas station. rather rare to find in "the wild" in my experience but I'm sure it happens more often then I know, given all the thiefs we have in this world. that being said what do you all think the grade is on this Wild one? Thanks in advance for any input

Very nice impaired Bicentennial proof quarter, Jsertl! It's not a silver one, is it?
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Nice impaired proof, looks like it was recently released into the wild. I'm not seeing any obvious circulation damage.

Not really. You can likely find many examples at any major coin show in the $3 to $5 range.

i told my girlfriend that most the damage had to of come from being in her purse for a day because it doesn't look like it spent much time in a drawer full of coins slamming into it. my sister has been collecting these since 1976 cause thats when she was born so now I can surprise her with a real Gem of a find. thanks for all the info everybody

one more thing, what exactly is the impairment on this coin? the "e pluribus" on the reverse looked like md to me but I'm not the guy you want making that decision either lol
