jonderson25 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 04/30/2013 12:52 pm I happened to notice in my change a 1979 quarter w/ a big "S" stamped on the left side (in front of Washington's head), and a big "2" stamped on the right side (b/h his head). When I say 'stamped' I mean 'impressed' into the quarter. Does anybody know anything about this. . .or is it just rubbish? TIA! ~Jon Report this Post to the Staff
