Razorshrp New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 6:52 pm Hello again everyone hope everyone is doing well. I was going through my moms old coins that she had from when she was younger. They had been misplaced for years and now I finally got my eager hands on them. I am mostly knowledgeable about pennies because they are cheaper to collect. Anyway this 1954 90% silver quarter is beautiful. So I took out my magnifying glass and with closer inspection, instead of in god we trust. It says god we rust the IN is slightly legible but the T in trust is missing. From my research it would seem I have a Grease Filled Die and that's why the lettering didn't stay. Please let me know what you think and if there is value besides the silver. Would it be worth sending in to NCG or some. Place similar. Thanks for any input. Report this Post to the Staff

dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 7:16 pm very rough cleaning on that one. rubbed it down. post mint damage. It only holds sentimental and intrinsic value at this point. Report this Post to the Staff

Razorshrp New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 7:31 pm Ok sounds good to me thank you all for your advice. I never cleaned it. It is possible my mom did years ago, could it be because I took two poor pics and edited them alot to show detail. Could that cause the cleaning look or is it the diaginal lines?

Francium8787 Valued Member United States 115 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 7:33 pm I was expecting a rusty (obviously fake since silver tarnishes) 1954 quarter with PMG that looked similar to the image. Report this Post to the Staff
