shantiom Pillar of the Community United States 522 Posts	Posted 11/11/2023 2:29 pm This is very helpful. Heating and expansion of the metal is something to always consider for me now. When you drop the coin it has very metallic sound unlike the clad quarters. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74064 Posts	Posted 11/13/2023 01:42 am I was suspicious of it being fire damage. It was my first thought. I might be wrong on it being a Clamshell Lamination. I'll get Mike Diamond to weigh in on it. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
