If I wanted an opinion from my peers, id take it to a car show and get advice. I was looking for a pro to give advice. Its struck on a Nickel planchet, thats already been determined by a coin shop. Value however couldnt be properly placed because of all the errors and another one hasnt been found to reflect an average price/ value. So, I know the coin is real. Came this way from the mint. The dealer told me if anyone said Dryer Coin, to walk away. Pics do change the actual color of the coin. The bronze looking pic is more to its true color. |

I respectfully suggest you use the search option at the top of the screen to see how Dryer Coins and spooned coins are made. You'll see examples of each and can then choose which most likely caused the damage to your coin. |

If it is struck on a nickel planchet, why does it show copper? Why does it weigh the same as a quarter instead of a nickel? All things a grading company will look at. It is a damaged quarter. Sorry

 I am not a pro. I am a hobbyist. I collect coins and learn about them just for the fun of it. So you can ignore my opinion as you have the others. First of all, this site is dedicated to educating collectors and we're all here to learn and share what we know. Posting that your coin is clearly not a Dryer Coin without any explanation about the differences you see doesn't help anything. If you have spotted a difference, please point it out. The people who replied to your post did so to be helpful. Second, my advice is to look at some quarters that were struck on nickel planchets. Here's a link. https://www.fredweinberg.com/produc...hets/page/2/ Click on one and study the rims. You can study all of them but you'll notice that the rims are all similar on these certified coins. Third, just because somebody owns a coin shop doesn't make them an error coin expert. |

I compared your coin to the dryer coins and my opinion is that your coin is a Dryer Coin too. sorry Buff. |

If you don't like the answers than don't post the coin. Everyone on this forum has the right to reply as long as it isn't offensive, which I don't see any was.

Definitely a Dryer Coin. Get it graded if you want, but don't be surprised by results you didn't want. |

C'mon Buff - you're off base, no big deal.  Edited by Coinfrog

Buff, it's exactly what we said it is. You probably thought it was something that it wasn't. This did not leave the U.S. Mint like this and was altered after getting out of the Mint (Post Mint Damage). It's worth face value. If you're going to argue with us, then why even bother asking? We are trying to be helpful, not offensive and mean. Please be careful with what you say to us. You don't want to get a bad rep on here.  Errers and Varietys.

We're never going to convince him.  In parting, here's what a quarter struck on a nickel planchet looks like... strikes up rather nicely...   |
