Spence Moderator United States 34402 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 2:27 pm @err, your picks are wicked small and when I blow them up, I'm just not seeing anything. Any chance of a larger pic, especially of the area that seems off to you. Also, can you please describe what you mean by a "finishing error"? Do you mean extra shiny? Extra dull? Or something else?

errorluvr New Member United States 31 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 2:55 pm See if this picture is better. The finish is very dull. The rim has a shine but nothing else on this side. It looks like a dull gray and feels different, almost dry, not slick like normal coins Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 3:34 pm Possibly the reverse devices on the outer ring were almost polished off the the die. These incuse devices on the coin, are actually raised devices on the die. So then the die is polished down, the devices get weaker on the coins struck with that die. Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 10:45 pm Some sort of environmental tarnishing/staining/chemical reaction. Post mint damage. Still worth a quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
