Besides the obvious damage/error It appears to have small letters on both sides, possibly an A below the neck and a D at the bottom of the hair. And on the left wing of the eagle an O or U. The more I look the more I feel like I see so just wanted to know what you think! Any input is much appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 03/25/2022 8:06 pm once a coin is damanged that much, it's very difficult to assess it for errors, all those spurious letter shapes are probably caused by the damage take an undamaged quarter, check that it has no unexpected small letters, then drag it along concrete, smash it with a hammer a few time, etc. and voila you'll have another coin that appears to have little letters on it Report this Post to the Staff

I've always been one to pick up any an every coin on the ground since I can remember, just now started to actually look at them an have come to appreciate the age and anything that sets it apart from the others.
