ErrorsRcool Valued Member United States 101 Posts	Posted 09/19/2025 11:06 pm Good evening all. With Halloween approaching, I thought I would share this haunting coin. Poor George had a small mishap. There are micro printed letters in the gash which sparked my curiosity as to weather it was PMD or not. I still don't know for sure but I thought it would be an interesting conversation piece. Happy hunting. ErrorsRCool. Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25133 Posts	Posted 09/19/2025 11:10 pm It could not have happened during minting of the coin, so it's PMD. Quote: There are micro printed letters in the gash Do you have a close-up picture of these micro printed letters?

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74016 Posts	Posted 09/19/2025 11:15 pm The TPG has it correct. It's just a gash from PMD. Not an error coin. The "letters" you're seeing is probably just Pareidolia. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 09/19/2025 11:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21603 Posts	Posted 09/20/2025 07:05 am So somebody spent the money to have a common quarter with damage worth 25 cents certified. You are correct, it is PMD. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95644 Posts	Posted 09/20/2025 1:43 pm sure looks like PMD - what does the reverse side look like in that area of the damage? Collecting since 1972.

ErrorsRcool Valued Member United States 101 Posts	Posted 09/21/2025 2:56 pm I believe Hondo Boguss asked if I had pictures of the micro printed letters in the gash. He are 3 pics. They aren't the best pics, but I tried. Report this Post to the Staff
Centinal Valued Member United States 263 Posts	Posted 09/21/2025 4:23 pm Interesting PMD/gash, but getting it slabbed? Report this Post to the Staff
ErrorsRcool Valued Member United States 101 Posts	Posted 09/21/2025 4:40 pm Yeah I know. I basically preserved it for my grandson. He likes Halloween goolish stuff, so what the heck. 🎃 He'll have something to talk about long after I'm gone. Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6496 Posts	Posted 09/21/2025 4:56 pm https://www.pcgs.com/cert/47641540 I can't see any letters in the gash. I see the eagle got it in the neck, too? Ouchies! Report this Post to the Staff
