does this look like a die error to you? The edge is raised on one side but the opposite side is flat. *** Edited by Staff to Add Year to Title. Titles are Important! ***  |

The other side doesn't seem to have any damage and the edge almost looks delaminated   |

to the CCF Almost looks like a clamshell. But I don't know why the reeds are smooth. Maybe a partial collar with a clamshell. Wait for someone above my paygrade to respond. |

Interesting in deed. my first thought was it was spooned and cut with a hacksaw, but the rims are not raised enough to stick with that theory. My second thought is -  Hmmm  Edited by Dearborn

to the CCF Usually no reeding means it was struck out of collar but then it would be larger. Can you give us the diameter, or if not, place it over a regular quarter and check the size. |

Looks more like a cladding separation issue. But why is that area thicker?

When I compare it between two regular quarters, it looks like the diameter is smaller, it is thicker all the way around and it is missing the reeding all around.  |

Just wondering if it is an early stage dryer coin( no reeding, thicker rims) that somehow the cladding got bent back. Pretty sure it is PMD. |

Very peculiar, definitely out of my spectrum of error noviceness. Maybe a good coin for Mr. Diamond to check out?

With the outside edge affected by a dryer, it may account to the peeling of the cladding and the thickening and reduction of the thickness of the planchet. So it was a normal quarter, before the long spin in the dryer:  It may have had a loose cladding on that area, and the dryer helped it along. PSD. |
