1988 P Quarter - Broad Strike? 0

[Woods020]

Newbie with a few coins I want to see if they are what I suspect. This looks like a broad strike from examples I have seen, but have not seen enough to know for sure. What is your opinion?

Welcome to the forum.

To be a broadstrike, the coin can't be struck inside the collar. The collar forms the reeding on a quarter, so, since your coin has reeding, it had to have been struck inside the collar. Therefore, it can not be a broadstrike. The rim has been worn off, probably by a machine of some sort.

Agree-

There is no ridge on the rim on either side so has been removed either intentionally or unintentionally. It is PMD

I agree - the rim has been worn down.
