I have a 2014 Utah d quarter with a big bump in it that goes through the word quarter that as far as I can tell is made into the coin. I know nothing about any of this stuff but do know it shouldn't have this tumor for lack of a better word. Can any one please help.

Is there any corresponding metal loss/movement on the reverse? If it is standing up off of the coin on the obverse, it is possible that something heavy was on it on the reverse. Or maybe the coin was heated up and it bubbled up — that could also have caused the rest of the discoloration also. Just guessing from the picture.

Always show both sides of the coin when making inquires.
That bump is probably caused by heat and is classed as damage
not an error. Adds no value to the quarter.

There is nothing on the reverse side which I thought I uploaded pics of. There is only the raised bubble on the face side. If it was from heat would there be any other marks or things to look for?

First welcome to CCF. Second, my vote is that this is a campfire coin.

Probably the discolouration of the quarter.
