kylekeen New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 08/16/2022 9:17 pm I have a 1991 quarter P mint mark that has no reeding and is slightly thicker than a standard quarter. I am not sure if it was pressed incorrectly or if this is was done after the mint. I have looked under a loop and I can't see any doubling like it was stamped twice. Both sides you can feel a lip all the way around the edges. Edited by kylekeen 08/16/2022 9:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

It could be as Spencer said, a Dryer Coin but would suspect it is a coin that has been in a bezel or encased. When it's a Dryer Coin, the devices are usually enlarged also, which I don't see. With the extreme difference in the rim thickness, it would show enlarged devices, if it were a Dryer Coin, in my opinion. Regardless, it is damage and worth a quarter. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
