    Perhaps we are all incorrect in that this is a damaged coin like the one you are comparing to. To prove us wrong you can send it in for error attribution and laugh at us later. Now get a basic membership ($25) then submit for grading under modern tier ($19) and add mint error attribution ($18). Depending on what value you want to insure this extreme rarity at supposed we say shipping costs will be $20 in total conservatively. For the low low price of roughly $82 you can potentially prove us wrong. Or in reality spend $82 on a damaged quarter that will be returned ungraded due to damage. The choice is yours my friend. 

    The thing is i dont want to have it graded i found this coin in my pocket change i google lensed iti brought me to the 2019 jocob coin forum that looks like mine, both sides have the same disfigurements one is disfigured slightly more than the other but they are the same type of disfigurement. I dont see how a coin put in any type of machine could do that type of damage when a coin is put into a machine it rolls down past a sensor straight into a coin tray. And if they for some reason was put in together and stuck side by side it wouldn't make damage like that.

    Can anyone tell me what if anything this quarter is besides a beat up quarter? I think it may be a broadstrike error but am unsure as I know nothing about coins. Is it something  that i should even bother with trying to grade? It is in fairly rough condition. The outside circumference is slightly larger than that of a normal everyday quarter as though it spread outward during the pressing. A little help if anyone would be so inclined. Thank you.

    Hi jacob i have an identical 2002 Indiana quarter. Im not sure if you live near me im in middletown ohio. Our coins are to identical. Me personally am not sure what happened to them but i dont believe it is damaged by a drier i do believe they were mistakenly errored like this during the making process. Cause i dont believe two different machines from two different places done the exact same damage to the exact same quarter.

    Welcome to the forum.

    A broadsrruck coin is one that was struck without the collar in place. The collar imparts the reeding on a quarter, so your coin had to have been struck with the collar in place. Therefore, it could not be broadstruck. I believe what you have there is a seriously damaged coin. From the look of it, I would guess that it was caught in some kind of machine, like a commercial clothes drier.

    I have the same exact 2002 indiana quarter.
