ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19118 Posts	Posted 05/21/2021 9:51 pm Photos posted are bit soft (perhaps low resolution). Given what's shown, I see a normal, common '97 D quarter--maybe not heavily circulated as some, but common. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94795 Posts	Posted 05/21/2021 9:52 pm A lack of normal circulation resulting in little to no wear on the coin. Collecting since 1972.

cladking Pillar of the Community United States 2270 Posts	Posted 05/21/2021 9:57 pm It really is a little unusual besides just being in nice AU. I believe it was very well struck by fairly good dies but there was grease on them near the middle of both sides. "Good dies" usually just means they are nearly new and well adjusted and strong strikes can have multiple causations but typically the pressure of the press is a little higher. Grease fills in the low spots of the die so the high points are unstruck. While the date has lots of nice strikes this coin will look a little different next to them. Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps. Report this Post to the Staff
