becardw3 Valued Member United States 102 Posts	Posted 03/20/2018 12:42 am The quarter is wider/taller a regular quarter, but it does not have the markings of a partial collar. could it have been worn down? But I haven't seen a MAD on both sides of the same coin. I need experts please. Edited by becardw3 03/20/2018 12:47 am Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 03/20/2018 12:46 am Well then, it is called a Brockage, struck without collar deployment, also known by "off-center strike. it will appear as MAD both sides and be larger. On reeded edges the impressions aren't there because those are on the collar, not die. Edited by Crazyb0 03/20/2018 12:58 am Report this Post to the Staff

That certainly could be consistent with a coin struck out-of-collar. There is no retaining ring to confine the planchet's expansion during the strike, so the end result of a coin could be out-of-round, or oblong. In that case, there would be no reeding on the coin's edge (like yours) because the collar applies that during the strike. P.S. Never hold a coin by its face, only by the edges. Fingerprints can be very detrimental to a coin.

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 03/20/2018 01:21 am No reeds present at all? Thinking potential off center broadstrike as whole design seem present. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

I think the OP coin could be an un-centered broadstrike. Edited by Conder101 03/20/2018 1:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff
