This I think is some kind of lamination error? I've not seen one quite as large as this, but that is what my guess was. It's 4.80 g I like it :) * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

I've never seen that before. curious. greetings from key west. I have a friend in corvallis. Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 26026 Posts	Posted 07/18/2026 04:59 am to the CCF, Jezirabid! Your first coin looks like it got hit with a meat tenderizer. The second was worked over with a wire wheel. But at least they are 35% silver! Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15623 Posts	Posted 07/18/2026 06:13 am to the CCF Going forward, please show only one coin per thread. It helps keep the discussion focused. You may start as many threads as you wish if you have multiple coins to show. Yep - that 1943-P is well worn and simply damaged. Its value is in the 35% silver content. My impression of the 1944-S is that is damage. Selective grinding perhaps? I look forward to other views. I moved your thread to the US Modern V/E forum.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21697 Posts	Posted 07/18/2026 07:39 am to the CCF Yes, both are just damaged quarters worth the silver value. There is nothing there that could have happened when the coin was struck. Report this Post to the Staff
