Came across this in a recent collection I bought... Counterstamped 'INS 1896' on an 1871 Quarter

The one to the right is 1872... Unfortunately has a nasty scratch on the reverse... This group had quite a few 'if only' coins...

Why would the US Immigration and Naturalization Service counterstamp a coin?
