Click on the picture to enlarge it so you can see them better. That's what makes me think it was milled for some reason Report this Post to the Staff

It might be pure happenstance that a counter stamp was hit on a previously intentional damaged quarter. I suppose it's possible, but I'm thinking both were done together. It may be another of our mysterious maybes. Report this Post to the Staff
