Second, if you are talking about the linear feature connecting the last three digits of the date, I'm pretty sure that this is a scratch from circulation rather than a die crack.

Saphfire New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 12:07 pm Spence, Thank you for your comment Question: If it was a scratch wouldn't it be over the 0? Trying to learn and apply what I have read. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6498 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 1:02 pm On the most recent quarters, the date is below the surface (incuse) rather than raised above the surface. So a scratch on the surface will skip over the sunken letters and numbers unless it is a super deep scratch (or someone intentionally drags a thumbtack or something through the grooves). On a typical older Washington quarter with raised letters and numbers, you are entirely correct, the scratch will cut through the devices on its way across the flat field.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95740 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 5:03 pm Yes, Brand is correct, on this quarter the devices (the lettering and numbers in this case) are incuse, and the marks between the date are on the field above the numbers Collecting since 1972.
