Arte New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 02/11/2019 11:24 am I have this quarter with a weird "soft" appearance and feel to it. It's very pale and almost shimmery, and the reeding is nearly gone. Any idea what's happened here? Thanks! :) Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74629 Posts	Posted 02/11/2019 11:29 am Just a damaged coin with Post Strike Damage ( PSD). It's impossible for this to have happened at the U.S. Mint. It can't happen. Just a spender. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74629 Posts	Posted 02/11/2019 11:55 am Still just a damaged coin as I mentioned before unfortunately. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 02/11/2019 12:14 pm Damaged / altered after strike. The disturbed section beside IGWT at first seemed interesting, but take in account all the rest including the edge and reverse and its all seems nothing more than damaged. Had it been something more, I'd recommend not using metal tweezers to hold a metal coin. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
Arte New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 02/11/2019 12:20 pm Good point about metal tweezers! Thanks! Still, any idea of what causes the soft, shimmery feel and appearance? Or the Cuds at 'dollar' or pushed in rim at 'ty'? Those two places are clipped on the outside edge. Report this Post to the Staff
