Second, your first quarter may have been struck with a little grease in the die (causing the second letter A to be weak). On the second quarter, that looks like damage to me.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 8:58 pm The Saratoga would have to be a struck through. But because these devices are raised on the die, there must have been something like paper or some soft debris grease with some grit on that raised device. (first time I've seen this) Report this Post to the Staff

Others should weigh in with their thoughts, but it is my understanding that the missing design features must be pretty significant for the coin to be worth more than face. I don't think that this coin reaches that level.
