So I got this quarter locally and the whole reason I'm even bothering asking is for the simple fact that this is not my first 1974 d quarter with similar " damage" take a look at the hole behind mr.washingtons head

To CCF! It shows Post Strike Damage ( PSD) not surprisingly. The damage happened after it left the U.S. Mint (happened after the coin was struck).

I can't think of anything other than damage to explain that. Can you post pics of the other coin you have with a similar mark?

Good question. Are those two marks raised? Can you give us a close-up?

They may be feeder finger die scratches? Note a single one on the que area?

Looks like the feeder fingers are going in a different direction. But this is an older coin, maybe the new quarters are using a different hammer/anvil die location?

Those do look a lot like feeder finger die gouges.
