Okay, is there anything to this because I just see a dirty quarter? I have no interest in purchasing, but am now curious. Looks like the wing was hit by a bb gun too.

Looks like just a crusty and damaged quarter. Probably shot with a BB gun just like you suspected.

Certainly not a mint error.

Could that be gas bubble in the planchet maybe? (Just grasping here.)

Would like to see the obverse to confirm my guess.I think the coin has been heated and a small pocket of gas expanded causing the bump.

They only want $150K...



They don't have a pic of the obverse, so we can't see the dent on the obverse, but my guess would still be it was victim of a BB gun. Whatever it is, it certainly isn't what the seller claims it is.

It has been in a fire and the high heat caused an internal separation of the cladding, just an ugly damaged coin
