Oppinions on State Quarter

[LostDutchman-migration]

hey gang... Im usually pretty spot on on errors... but this one has me a little confused.. I think its post mint.. but I wanted to post it here for some opinions or to something im missing... I was told by the lady that found it that it came out of a orange and white mint wrapper... but i wasn't there to see it so i cant vouch for it..

Could it be glue?

[LostDutchman-migration]

that was a thought that had crossed my mind... its possible...

I want to say post-Mint damage, too. What is puzzling is the fact that I would expect to see greater destruction of the devices in the affected areas. Also, there appears to be no damage on the obverse where you might expect to see some of the devices flattened from the force of someone hammering the impression onto the reverse.

 

It looks like the foreign object might have been some sort of retaining ring. Is it embedded in the coin?

Another Mint SNAFU ?

Could it be glue?

 

That is a possibility. Do you think someone was trying to make a two-headed half dollar?

I would have expected a great disruption of the obverse if this were post-mint. Although I have no idea what it might be, it could be one mother of a strike-through (although that would have obliterated the devices, as Christ mentioned.) Huh. That one is weird.

It does look like glue.

Has that appearance of someone placing two coins together and hitting with a hammer. Oddly though the obverse is not effected.

Looks like it was struck through a snap ring.
