Hello everyone's,

I post here my bigger strike over grease, oil I saw in 25 cent, it is Canadian but I thing also the US must see (education purpose) and same post is also on Canadian error forum. No need to be redirected.

History: In February 2012 I bayed in New York a dealer store who close. The last box I just opened, mixed between others. This coin was on a 2x2 with mention from UN set.

Facts: 4.46 gr, diameter 23.87, thickness 1.59 mm. The coin seem to show some trace of the RCM mark so I conclude a strike between 2006 and 2012 when I buy, better 2011.

I post for your feedback on this and if someone make studies of or want to catalogue this coin, just let me know.

Sorry my camera microscope and the camera just go down, I ordered one just few min ago.

Canadian Quarter - Queen Elizabet II on obverse and Caribou on the reverse. Don't know why it looks the way it does.

Almost looks like a fresh plating job on a polished out coin. The rims are there, so it is not a low pressure strike. Is the weight the same as a normal coin? If the weight is low, then it may have been altered. If normal, then it maybe a different issue. To me it just screams fake/altered. To shiny to be a normal quarter.
