KevinSun242 Valued Member United States 105 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 01:19 am Found this in my drawer at work today. At first, I thought somebody had painted a quarter. But after looking at it more closely, it looked way too cleanly done to be somebody defacing a coin. Looked it up a bit, found out that it was a commemorative coin for the New York mets, done on the obverse side of a New York State Quarter. Just something interesting I found and wanted to share. http://newyork.mets.mlb.com/news/pr...jsp&c_id=nym Also, try to ignore the bloody finger.

I just checked ebay, and there appears to be 2 different kinds. Some quarters just show a head shot of the players (those look like the originals,) and some have their whole upper body on the quarter.
