Axyspro16 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/20/2021 9:47 pm Hello I'm new to the hobby and believe I found an ellis island quarter with an error. It is a ring on the obverse side that matches the ring on the reverse side. Should I send this in? Thank you in advance! Report this Post to the Staff

Numiscrat Valued Member United States 221 Posts	Posted 03/20/2021 9:58 pm Welcome! Looks like damage from a Coin Wrapping Machine. Notice how the ring looks cut, with smeared/displaced metal? That didn't happen when the coin was struck. Not worth more than face. Report this Post to the Staff
