greenb66 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 01/31/2022 7:56 pm Hello Everyone, Thank you for taking the time out to help. I found this quarter in a circulated coin roll and I'm sure that this has minting error on the coin.There are actually multiple errors, some more blatant I think, but I could be wrong. Can someone please give me their opinion of the coin? Is this a laminated error? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

greenb66 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 01/31/2022 8:37 pm Hey Dearborn, Thanks for replying back.I've been trying to get a better picture, but all I have is my phone and no micro card for my scope for a better picture. I inspected this coin under a microscope and magnify glass and it truly looks like a lamination error among other errors. Report this Post to the Staff

When I crop, enlarge, and enhance your current pics, this region gets too pixelated to really see what is going on. I'd set this one aside until you can improve your camera set-up. With that said, I also agree with @dear that this is most likely damage of some sort.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21630 Posts	Posted 02/01/2022 1:58 pm Your second photo is too small, we need a large clear photo of the mint mark area. Until a better photo proves me wrong, I will go along with PMD as I can see no errors anywhere on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97162 Posts	Posted 02/01/2022 4:11 pm as long as you are at it, can you also post up a close-up image of the back of Washington's neck from the hair line down to the 'LL' in dollar? I find that coppery appearance of the cladding more interesting than I do the Mint mark.. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19197 Posts	Posted 02/01/2022 4:51 pm I suspect the 'copper tint' is due to the light source. Yes on the post-strike damage. Report this Post to the Staff
