cwilhelm New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 01/03/2012 01:47 am Hello all! This coin I recently found has really intrigued me... It is a 1972 Washington quarter with a large "S" stamped on it. I am new to this and I want to know if this is something special. Also, my searches on the internet have been unsuccessful in identifying this. Any help is greatly appreciated!

People did that for various reasons, sometimes for advertising and sometimes just for fun. Probably the case with yours - someone trying out their new die stamp set. Value? Twenty Five cents.
