Popular Post BusinessDemiGOD Posted November 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2021 I believe this quarter has a strike through from a 25C Canadian Quarter with Reverse being A Deer. Ive submitted photos to multiple places only to get an immediate response that its damaged without actually looking closer to the details. Common Logic: Water damage would be even on a surface that is even. The aspect of the deterioration on the obverse is not consistent with that of liquid damage because the face is elevated making it impossible to have a consistent circular pattern. Comparing the reverse of the 25c Canadian coin with the obverse of this US quarter it seems logical that it would be a match. Also on reverse I'm not sure if its a tape strike through? Images are taken with Microscope x16. If more photos are needed i have more... I appreciate all the help in figuring this out and better understanding this....

The pattern size and rounded to flattened parts of horns are identical but if its pmd then wouldn't it look different?

l.cutler Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) It looks like it had some corrosive substance on it. Do some studying up on the minting process, what you are suggesting isn't really even possible. Both sides show the same discoloration/staining, the coin so the coin was pretty much immersed in the stuff.

Fenntucky Mike Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Hello and welcome, Please post pics of the entire coin, front and back, in addition to any additional images of the area/s in question. I don't know what the discoloration is but I know what didn't happen and that's a strike through of a Canadian quarter at a U.S. mint. My best guess at this point is corrosion.

Mohawk Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 What you are describing is outright impossible. There is no way that ever happened. One coin was struck in Denver, the other was struck in Winnipeg. Since what you're describing is impossible, logic dictates that your coin is simply damaged. 124Spider 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
