John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/21/2022 04:15 am I agree with acid damage. We see a few of them every year. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16809 Posts	Posted 10/21/2022 06:35 am Definitely not an error. I believe this is a very typical "Coca-Cola quarter". Drop a perfectly normal quarter into a glass of Coke, and wait for it to stop fizzing, and it will come out looking pretty much the same as this. The copper core is more vulnerable to acid attack than the cupronickel cladding, which is how the "coin sandwich" effect was created. Acid attacking underneath the plating also explains the bubbles and blisters all over it. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 10/21/2022 09:26 am Intentional post mint damage. Still worth 25 cents. Keep searching! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95088 Posts	Posted 10/21/2022 09:59 am acid dipped quarter to etch the copper center, also the CuNi cladding is bulging out on the reverse, possibly to heat being applied - (I do not see a corresponding dent in the same area on the Obverse).
