I found the attached quarter in pocket change and am curious if anyone with expertise can provide insight into the depression on it. Could it be post-mint damage (very likely), or possibly a strike-through error? A few details to note: • There's a reverse "R" on the obverse near the rim. • The metal around the depression on the reverse doesn't appear to have been displaced (no visible pushing up or down on the sides). • I weighed the coin, and it measures 5.7g. Any thoughts? Help much appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff
