If you are talking about the appearance, it looks like someone has attempted to clean it, or the surfaces have been messed with some other way. If you're referring to something else, please specify.

Nice looking quarters.  I bet the hunt for these is a lot of fun.

Part of the price disparity is probably because the top (NGC) coin is silver, and the bottom (NGCX) is clad.

There are sensible ways of avoiding one's past ignorances by creating a new account, and foolish ways. One of those is to refer back to what one said on their previous account. It boggles my mind that people think we won't pick up on that.

Unlike most other collectors, that fingerprint on the 1911 does not bother me. The little round spot in front of Lincoln's upper lip does cause some concern, though. Still, I intend to keep an eye on it when it comes up for auction.

You can't post something like that without showing pictures. 

Best one from a registry point perspective. Pop 1/0 MS67 DPL. New pictures will be updated hopefully this week on the registry in both Custom and Competitive.
 

A PF70 ultra cameo quarter is worth a few hundred to the right buyer, so if you are seeing prices higher than that, it is likely clickbait. i can relate, though. I saw an article this morning that had a title claiming that certain bicentennial quarters were worth $80 million. 

Until the last quarter of 1942, nickels were made of the regular copper-nickel alloy. When the composition was changed to copper/silver/manganese, the large P,D,or S mintmark was added over the dome of Monticello to denote the different composition. The copper/nickel coins from Philadelphia had no mint mark, and the Denver issue had a small "D" to the right of the building on the reverse. Your nickel is a Philadelphia Cu/Ni coin. The dark gray patina is not unusual for coins of that era.

I hate to see you go, but I do understand not wanting to deal with all of the nonsense posts and trolling. I just wonder if things are any better on any of the other chat boards.
All the best to you.

I did not set any goals for this l past year, but I was able to add 41 tokens to the collection, along with a couple of interesting US error coins and some world coins that caught my eye. All-in-all, it was a good year for all my collections.

New Purchase
 

Just got this one in today, I thought it a better remembrance of Pobjoy than the farewell Pegasus minted as the last coin. It's a cupronickel, crown size token. The Britannia design is a little rough but no worse than most U.S. coin designs today.  Britannia is also holding a token in place of a shield which I like, coin designs on coins or banknotes, or banknote designs on banknotes, is a little offshoot collecting lane I go down occasionally. 

The Pobjoy token reminded me of this one, another crown size piece minted by Pobjoy. It was quickly withdrawn as it was deemed in violation of the IoM currency act, all the people going around the island trying to use these to purchase items probably didn't help matters either.

Welcome to the forum. Your coin looks like it has spent some time in the bowels of a commercial clothes dryer or some other machine that has worn down the edge and one side. It is not an error coin but is merely damaged.
