To me, it looks like Post Mint Damage.

Suspicious-looking to me.

To CCF! Can you get a picture of the edge, where the clipped area is?

Even if it's genuine, I don't see it fetching any premium.

I'm no expert on these clipped planchet errors - but this example does not look right to me.

The clip at DOLLAR appears to have smeared the legend strike, while a genuine clip would show the upper portions of the legend clearly while fading into the removed metal area.

I'm suspicious of this one - welcome to be persuaded otherwise.

The "clip" at LIBERTY is the most suspicious. Note how metal is flowing OVER the rim. That simply cannot happen with a true clipped planchet.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Gotta go with the majority. It all looks suspicious.

Looks like heat damage from a possible plasma rod to make it look like multiple clips!

PMD, but still worth a quarter.

Doesn't look suspicious to me at all, I say genuine but I guess I'm in the minority here.

It appears weakly struck with worn dies especially at LIBERTY and QUARTER DOLLAR, which isn't uncommon on quarters from that era, and likely why the clip is affecting more than what you'd expect.

I'm thinking it's a genuine Clipped Planchet as well.

I think it's probably genuine, but not having complete, clear, full-coin pics of both sides is nagging at me.

Hello, thank you very much for your welcome, I am very happy to have found this forum where I learn so much.
About the coin, I think it is good, it has been in my father-in-law's collection for years, about 40, but I am very new and I am not sure. Thanks to this coin I have gotten hooked on numismatics, but above all on the search for errors and strange things!
thanks for everything
