1974 Quarter

The term plated for coins I don't understand, I fear that word for plated as I know means redone "Billy bought a plated car yesterday"
Or are you using it meaning clad...clad, clad·ding, clads
1. To sheathe or cover (a metal) with a metal.
2. To cover with a protective or insulating layer of other material.

For I did find another piece of info about the 1974 quarter yesterday

Fearful of creating low-mintage pieces which might be hoarded as the cent recently had been, thus creating a shortage of quarters, in December 1974 the Mint obtained congressional approval to continue striking 1974-dated quarters, half dollars and dollars until Bicentennial coinage began. Accordingly, there are no 1975-dated quarters.

Which means the 1974 quarter was also being made in 1975 as well, but being stamped as 1974...Which increases the chance of it being mistakenly stamped on the 1975 bi role...I know Phila mint didn't produce the 1975 bi silver clad proof quarter (5.75g) but being that Phila mint is the main USA mint, who is to say they didn't run a test run of the bi's and trashed them and the 1975 bi roll was mistakenly used to do the 1974? I will re-upload the pictures today I was trying to find my cameras batteries yesterday(I had used my HD camcorder for the first video and a scanner for the pictures)...And I will be going down to the mint today and take the tour to see if any 1975 bi was tested there...It should be easy to find out for they would have pictures if they did...

But thank you all for the help, we will get to the bottom of this one, if any thing I am 100% smarter now on the history of coins

I redone some pictures and used the image optimizer(which I love thanks) for this site to get them under 100kb...I will contact Mr Mike Diamiond to see what he thinks...I went to the mint yesterday to do some research and it's closed until July 3rd for renovations, I need to also know if this coin is dd as well if you look at the trust on the front why is that like that and would that explain the fatter letters?
Tried re-adding the pictures here it wouldn't allow me, I didn't know I had 24 hours to edit main post....Sorry the pictures are off site again...

Thank you Mr Diamond that's all I need to know I was asked to get you option, I have it now I didn't know if it could of been that type 2 clad that I found at PCGS today, And after reading about it there I see why one would want to make fakes valued at up to 600.00 dollars, I wasn't trying to force one to say it was real I was just trying to make sure for I know nothing in the Coin World...
Thank you all but I am 100% more smarter now when it comes to at least the quarter, and from now on I will look at my change closer before I give it away...

Over the weekend I had made a appointment to C E Bullowa - Coin Hunter(who is mentioned in PCGS books) here in Philadelphia, they contacted me back on Monday right before I was heading out the door to take the coin to the mint and gave me a appointment for yesterday...I took the quarter in question to them yesterday and after looking at the coin weighing it(5.75g) scoping it measuring it by a couple different people that work for them, one of them I swear had to be 90 years old, told me that the coin is a true US mint coin with no signs of it being plated, dipped, chromed, and no signs of post mint anything done to the coin, and that there is errors on it, one of the errors that could be is the fact that when it was stuck on the back side it bent the coin from the feet to the the edges, but the only place or people that can call that a true error coin would be PCGS or NGC and only them. They told me if I send it to PCGS it should come back as MS-65 or MS-66...

They also told me I need to sent it out to have it graded, but honestly no need to I am not looking to sell, my post was never intended to find the value that one places on something, I just wanted to see what it was...And believe it or not my family has a huge old money collection of blue and red seals from the turn of the 1900's, and hundreds of silvers half from the same time period that my father will pass to me when he dies, and I know they are real for the bank yelled at me when I was 10 for taking a blue seal 20.00 in just to get 2 rolls of quarters to play video games, I just wanted something unique to add to the collection so I can pass it to my son when I die...


But all in all they placed the quarter in one of their soft plastic coin holders yelled at me for the one I had it in hard plastic with the coin able to move and told me not to touch it again and if I do only on the edges...Everybody have a good day...

That is not possible for the simple fact that a coin is struck on both sides simultaneously. Any dealer that makes such a rediculous claim is a dealer to not be trusted for reliable information regarding errors. The only way a coin can be bent in the striking process is if the collar fails. The collar is also known as the third die and it defines the diameter of a coin and holds the planchet between the dies during striking. If the collar does not engage when a coin is struck, it will not have reeding on the edge but your coin is fully reeded so this scenario is not possible.

As an aside, you gotta use some punctuation and paragraph breaks man, those posts are a mess and very difficult to read with the numerous run-on sentences
