This was part of an effort to reduce coin collecting and hording due to a nation wide coin shortage. To read more on what happened, check out "The Coinage Act of 1965." The US government also discussed banning coin collecting because of the shortage. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 11/12/2020 10:53 pm Double check your scale first, but the weight is right for a quarter struck on half dollar stock. I come up with a calculated weight of 7.22 grams so 7.25 grams is very believable. And if it is on half dollar stock it would be 40% silver stock. This would be a very GOOD mint error.
