JoeVegas444 Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 6:07 pm I think this quarter may have been struck on dime stock. The coin is thinner than other quarters and seems to line-up with the thickness of a dime. It weighs approx. 5.58 grams. What do you think? Also, any ideas on value? Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 6:27 pm Weight and diameter indicate it's struck on a quarter planchet. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
JoeVegas444 Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 6:40 pm @ DBM. I read the Washington quarters are supposed to weigh 5.67 grams. Is there a margin of error associated with that? Also, the strike on the reverse is incredibly weak. It indicates something is wrong. Report this Post to the Staff

JoeVegas444 Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 7:13 pm @DBM/Kloccwork419. Thank you for your input. I respectfully disagree. Report this Post to the Staff
Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 7:39 pm I agree with the others, looks like a normal worn quarter to me. There is tolerance in planchet weights and remember circulation also removes weight. .09 grams is not a large difference. Based on other accounts, true quarter on dime stock errors weigh around 4.2 grams Edited by Adam_E 04/26/2020 7:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
silverwolf Pillar of the Community Canada 3733 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 7:41 pm definitely not struck on dime stock, the weight is what it should be for a quarter, it is impossible for it to weigh almost 6 grams, and be a dime. Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 7:43 pm There is no way at 5.58 grams this is from stock meant for a Roosevelt dime. If it were you would not see all the design elements associated with a fully struck Washington quarter. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 04/26/2020 7:54 pm From a website concerning the 1970-D quarters that were struck on dime stock: "While a quarter dollar of this era should weigh 5.7 grams, these coins weigh just 4.2 grams."
