(Forum rookie) I hope that someone can help me with this bicentennial quarter I found a few years ago. As you can see from the pictures, it is an oddball. Any help would be great!

Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 08/19/2019 7:28 pm @fujimo, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please post to this thread overall pics of both sides of this coin? We sometimes see Magician's coins with this type of edge seam, but it could be a couple other things too.
