There is no seam. The coin has been pressed into the bezel. Notice on the obverse how high the rim is, that is part of the bezel. Although not a valuable Morgan in that condition, you would probably. ruin it trying to remove it. Leave it as it is.

Welcome to the forum Nice find and nice photos. You have indeed a hard to find 1992D CAM but I will leave the value up to others.

Neither look like genuine straight clips. The second one you can see where the metal has folded over after the coin was struck.

As per your other posting, that is zinc rot, a common occurrence on zincoins.

Welcome to the forum First of all, this is the forum for buying/selling coins. I have asked a mod to move it. Not to worry, this happens quite frequently. Your coin is not a DOUBLED DIE and hasn’t been punched. From the photo supplied, (please do not use screen shots, they are too pixilated) it looks like zinc rot has set in, not uncommon with zincoins

Besides the W mint mark, just look at the U in UNITED, a counterfeit is straight on the bottom on the right hand side, a genuine coin is curved. This applies to a lot of the years of counterfeits.

Welcome to the forum Looks like the rim has taken a couple of hits. But no matter the cause, it is damage.

Welcome to the forum Value depends on condition and in order to see condition, we will need a clear photo of BOTH sides. Don’t expect to get rich though, it is only valuable in higher grades as there would be hundreds of thousands of these minted.

This is a duplicate post. The same coin was posted yesterday.

Simple answer, no. The only 1970 small date has the S mint mark . Seeing yours has no mm, it would not be possible

Welcome to the forum We see these quite often on the forum. As Coinbuf stated, just a vise job or sometimes called a garage job. Someone with too much time on their hands. A damaged coin now.

Welcome to the forum That is not an error, it is damage (PMD). There is no way for that to occur when the dime was struck.

Good find. Hard to come by in the wild. Looks like there is a bit of split plating above the letters.

Please do not use screen shots, they are too pixilated to see small detail clearly. From what I can make out, it looks like zinc rot, just another damaged zincoin.

The same as your 2008 nickel that is severe DDD from a very worn die.

That would be Die Deterioration Doubling (DDD) In Mechanical Doubling the devices would be reduced.

Photos are a little dark to see detail but without even looking at it I could be 99.9999% sure it is a counterfeit. This is probably the second most asked question on the forum and no one has found a genuine one yet.

Thanks for the new photo. The fact that the reeds are missing and the diameter is smaller confirms my thoughts that it is a dryer coin. This is not considered an error but damage to the coin. Suggest if you are going to look for errors, read up on what constitutes an error. Sandon has given you some websites plus this is one I use frequently. error-ref.com.

No need to apologize, everyone has to start somewhere. Suggest reading the top two posts in this column, there is a wealth of information there for beginners. Your coins weight is in spec so its not overweight. Would still like to see a clear photo of both sides. Also would you put this quarter on top of another quarter and see if the diameter is the same or is it smaller.

First, never hold a coin in your bare hands, the oil from your skin can cause fingerprints and greatly devalue a coin. Also those are not reed marks, it is a pattern around the edge of your coin. It looks like the edge has just been worn down either intentionaly or unintentionaly. Almost forgot, welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum First we need the weight to two decimal points. Second we need a clear photo of both sides of the coin. Also please crop your photos, we don't need all that background and it will enlarge your photos. It could be one of a couple of things be we need more informaytion.

Maybe it is just me but I do not consider die chips an error, it is a die event. It is no different than die deterioration or die polishing. The die has been altered and every coin struck after the chip started would have that mark. You could have tens of thousands the same until the die was retired. Most errors are a one time event due to improper striking of the coin. If the die has a chip, then no matter how well the coin is struck, it would still show, it has nothing to do with the improper striking of the coin.

Welcome to the forum A clear photo of both sides along with an explanation of what you see is required before anyone can help you.

That was my first thought but a knockout usually has a small metal tab on the edge that I do not see.

If you are including ancients, then I think Alexander the Great may have had his coins minted in at least 8 locations as he had mints in various areas of his vast empire.
