sickpuppy78501 Pillar of the Community United States 599 Posts	Posted 05/29/2024 11:36 am It's probably nothing but I just wanted to double check. This quarter weighs 5.52 grams. I'm wondering if it could be struck on the wrong planchet. I know the U.S. Mint has minted coins for other countries in the past and I wondered if that might be what happened here. I looked at the rim of the coin and it is composed of two metals, apparently copper and zinc. The weight is only a little more that 2.5% off, and I know that's no big deal. It never hurts to ask for expert opinions though. So do I have something? Report this Post to the Staff
