I searched forums on this site and did not find any discussions on this particular quarter. My knowledge is limited on error coins and I just save coins that I find unusual. I have included photos and would appreciate any input on if this is a mint error or not. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 20779 Posts	Posted 05/14/2025 11:04 am to the forum Damage is not an error. An error can only occur during the striking of the coin and there is no way for what is on your quarter to happen at that time. It is just PMD ( Post Minting Damage) Report this Post to the Staff
