jokingjoker Pillar of the Community United States 2150 Posts	Posted 02/10/2007 8:34 pm I found this qurter and dont know what to make of it is a 2202 Tennesse quarter is is slightly smaller in diameter than other quarters but the weight is the same. There are no reeds on the edge and the edges come up high on both sides I have included some pics so if you can help I would really apreciate it.
