riverguy New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 04/24/2010 09:54 am found this 1993 quarter in change last week. took it to a local dealer, and he said it does not really know if this is a minting problem or post issue modification of some sort. There is a very slight dent on the reverse, but it does not line up with the build up on the obverse. Also it appears to be the same metal as the coin, not solder. any ideas?

Ugly Pillar of the Community Canada 1733 Posts	Posted 04/24/2010 11:38 am Very curious Hypothesis; If water enters a non bonded area and froze, it could very well result in something like this.. any way to tell if the raised area is hollow underneath?

On a side note, as you found out, alot of small dealers have no or little experience with errors and are not good sources for information. Report this Post to the Staff
