Minnimarine Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 08/19/2021 3:52 pm I'm not seeing tool marks myself. Looks to me like someone May have cleaned or wiped the area of the missing date. Might be why the area has more shine. Looks to me like a Greaser. Just what I'm seeing.(Not a pro) Like the mystery Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97904 Posts	Posted 08/19/2021 5:06 pm oops, I didn't scroll down to the clad specs, (I was at work and in a rush) yes the coin should weigh 5.7g So, if the test quarter weighed exactly 5.7g then it only lost .05g not my original .65g calculation (which was based on a silver coin at 6.3 grans.)

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 08/19/2021 6:11 pm The U.S. Mint website says a clad quarter should weigh 5.670 grams. So my quarter with a weight of 5.65 grams is 0.02 grams light, which is within tolerance. So the weight of the OP's quarter can't give a definite answer of whether it is a grease strike or PMD. If it is overweight, that would make it more likely that it is a grease strike. If it is underweight, then there is a slightly better chance of having it damaged. Either way it is still a guess.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/19/2021 8:57 pm They have mint tolerances for coins. They only weight the coin coins. So the differences would have to be excessive to show a thinned planchet with a weak strike. even a missing clad on one side will show a weak strike because of the lack of thickness of the coin.
