Searched for topics before making this post.
I have gotten minimal results from the forum search.
I noticed a 1973 quarter posting about a 5.3 , I also have one. It weighs 5.36 grams and it is not a detector find.
I have several 1970's quarters and they all weigh in at spec.
I use the weightman Gold scale.
I've reset scale many times and weighed multiple coins in concession to see if I was right on what I saw.
I'm just curious about the weight difference. What can make it that different ?
Thanks

Ok. So you think the die breaks on the front are nothing to check into ? As well as the design misprint on the back? I can't see how a coin roll machine would take away the letters on reverse or change the imagine. Am I missing something here? If so , please educate?
The opinions here are sometimes totally different from other sites. Newbies like me are easily confused by this. I understand you are simply looking at a pic that may not have the best quality when we post here and that may be something I need to work on. I have coins missing letters , some the full words are missing , as well as some with pic patterns missing. I usually seem to get the same response here. My error , after mint damage ( mine or someone's it seems ) , weather/chemical damage, I have to wonder how every coin I post to learn about here is well, junk. Not to be rude but I think if anyone could post a link with their reply to help us to learn what they say it is would be wonderful. I'm not hunting an easy road for info. I will read any think I'm given to learn. Surely , if you feel strongly that you know the damage then you have either had this issue in your coins or at least seen it and looked for info yourself. You don't need to go find articles to post links , just tell me what to search Google for and I will be looking. Maybe I'm different , but I would love to find articles with other pics to compare. I want to learn all I can.
Thanks to you all
