Bill Kerr Valued Member United States 421 Posts	Posted 06/14/2023 07:09 am Good day guys, I have stumbled upon another coin that I am not familiar with this issue. Can you enlighten me with what is going on, these are craters not die chips. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

You can also see evidence of this on the reverse, where there are several corresponding flat spots.

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6454 Posts	Posted 06/14/2023 08:42 am Maybe someone was trying to make a coin ring? I'd put my money on the notion that they were punching holes in something else entirely, like leather, and using the quarter as a hard backstop. Report this Post to the Staff
