Hello everyone, I am pretty much coin stupid. I don't know what is wrong with this I just know it doesn't look or feel right. It has no ridges around the edge. It feels like it was struck too hard like it has a raised rim? It weighs 5.6 grams. I hope the pictures will be enough to get help with this. I found this in my change jar. I was never interested in coins till my dad and I started going through his coins. He has Alzheimer's now so I can't really ask him. I would appreciate any help with this. I am sorry to bother but I am just looking to gain more knowledge.    Thank you for your time!!!!! Lori |

Thank you, I read your post on Dryer Coins just now. I appreciate your input. I don't know much about coins just know what my dad taught me. I really am grateful for the people on here who don't make me feel dumb. Thank you again, Lori |

Yes, nice Dryer Coin. Spooning possible, but I'm thinking dryer induced. |

there is hardly any damage to this one, and the edge is very smooth - I'll go with a spooned quarter (the start of a ring).

Could be an early stage Dryer Coin, or a spooned coin. Either way, it's PMD. Errers and Varietys.

Could be a Dryer Coin, could be spooned, it also may have spent extensive time being used over and over in an arcade or laundromat. |

May have seen extensive use in slot machines, but most likely a Dryer Coin. |

Coins left in clothing often fall out during wash cycle, and I have to use a very small screwdriver or pick to get them out of the bottom of my washing machine... they often come out looking just like this.
