Thought This Might Be An Interesting Find. 2007 Montana State Quarter For

The spot in front of George is a place where grease was on the die when the coin was struck, No added value. The rest of what you see is damage from circulation. The horse's leg took a circulation hit. The "dotted" marks are where another coins reeded edge impacted your coins surface.

A suggestion to help you in searching coins. It appears you are learning about coins "backwards."

You appear to be searching coins for anomalies in hopes of finding a collectable error. The problem is that all circulated coins can have such anomalies (and others) that are not mint produced and certainly not collectable.

So the way to appraoch this would be to know what actual mint erros and varieties are, and to recognize them when you see them.

How? Spend some good time reviewing actual errors at places like error-ref.com, varietyvista.com, Coneca, etc. Then start looking for those exact errors instead of randomly searching the faces of all coins.

When your eye gets used to seeing what actual errors look like, you will develop a knowledge for damage vs. what you really desire to find.
