I believe John1 reference to the indents and partial brockages from error-ref.com is what this error suppose to be, worthy to get this authenticated by PCGS or NGC.

Thanks John1 (and Macmercurey). It does look like "An in-collar indent" on the link John1 posted.
Thanks SM420 for the additional image of the reverse. Glad to see you located it again.

That reverse is neat the way the rim "fades" in and out from K6 to K9.

Is the date damaged?

The date isn't damaged, it is strike out of collar, notice the double rim.

Are we still talking about the OP's quarter and the new reverse image, or about the one John1 brought up? I'm confused

On the OP's quarter, I can see that the device opposite the 'big dent' is severely flattened out - like the obverse took a big hit..

Thanks MacMercury.
Is that what caused the tops of the 72 on the OP's coin to split?(and look like birds of prey feasting)

Or is that just some funky MD?

It's an in-collar indent associated with a slight horizontal misalignment of the obverse (hammer) die. As is often the case, the direction of the misalignment is toward the pole opposite the indent, suggesting this is a "forced misalignment".
