First off, the color of the Delaware is the same on both sides, Smokey gray but a weak weird green at the same time. Copper center.
The Arkansas has the same Smokey gray/green tint on obverse but regular shiny silver on reverse. Copper center.
Now the PA is in wonderful condition. So wonderful in fact it still has a nearly unflawed wire rim, both sides are completely surrounded by this wire rim.
Just lookin for thoughts. I know the only planchets found SO FAR have been gold and green. So who's to say this ain't one, OR two?

How much does each quarter weigh (at least to the tenth of a gram)?

THAT is the question of the day,my friend, and I plan on finding out. Don't have scales so I gotta wait on the coin shop to open. I'll let ya know. Either way I figure the coin(s) oughta be worth SOMEthin. You think?

Nothing special about these coins. They are in various stages of circulation. The nicest one is probably uncirculated making the others look different. But circulation/hands touching them/introduction to various liquids in circulation and the ones who intentionally damage coins alter them from look BU. Just the one coin may have come from a new roll.

I figured out that the two are a strike through error. Struck Through Grease. Lol. The wire rim error is a nice piece. They say not many of those get out off the mint. I was WAY off on the experimental planchet. Those are actually gold lookin coins with a green hue. Thanks y'all!

I guess, then, that they weighed the same as normal quarters?
