iluvhorses New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/26/2015 2:19 pm i have a quarter that has only the back of the coin printed. it has it's raised edges but is blank on the front side and hollowed out. do you think someone some how took the front off the quarter? is it a error from the mint? i have tried to get better photos but obviously my camera is not very good it seems. I do hope what I have is helpful though. Report this Post to the Staff

I'm guessing it isn't a real quarter and may be a trinket of some kind. Edit: Almost forgot to say Edited by Neo13x 03/26/2015 2:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Neo13x Pillar of the Community United States 604 Posts	Posted 03/26/2015 3:04 pm Just another guess but maybe someone was trying to make a magic coin with the help from a machinist. Edit: KisNap beat me to it Edited by Neo13x 03/26/2015 3:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/26/2015 4:49 pm Kisnap has it correct. Part of the coin was lost and probably put in a roll to get rid of it to get a quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
