sweetammonia66 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/23/2008 12:56 am It is a 1965 Washington quarter. I've been looking online for something like this, but haven't found anything similar. The quarter is lighter than normal and missing a lot of the nickel plating. What is this called? What do you think is it's value?

sweetammonia66 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/23/2008 01:00 am It isn't a toning error. It actually has a lot less nickel. Edited by sweetammonia66 06/23/2008 01:01 am Report this Post to the Staff

sweetammonia66 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/23/2008 01:04 am It is a little smaller. I'll put up another picture with a standard quarter next to it. Report this Post to the Staff
sweetammonia66 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/23/2008 01:14 am Would you like a side view comparison picture? It is obviously a lot thinner. Have you heard of this happening? Edited by sweetammonia66 06/23/2008 01:26 am Report this Post to the Staff
