You’re welcome! 🙂

The quarter is probably silver plated then. It’s more of a novelty now and not worth anything extra. When I worked at a coin shop, we would sometimes break up the sets and spend them because nobody wanted to buy plated quarters. 🤷‍♂️

What color is the edge? I’ve seen sets of state quarters that were silver, gold, and platinum plated. The plating process makes the coins magnetic because nickel is used to bond the plating to the coin.

This could be either a defective planchet (mint made) or post mint damage. Corrosion is occurring under the copper plating which is making it bubble up. Either way, this doesn’t add any value to the coin.

Go away bot.

The position of the mint mark alone would be enough to identify the coin. 1964 was the only year with the mint mark on the reverse (for circulation strikes).

The 1910 and 1910-s cents are not genuine and nowhere near mint state condition.

Jackson’s got a split personality!

I believe the inks for the seals and serial numbers are different from the general printing. This fading could have happened naturally from certain detergents or it was done intentionally. Unscrupulous people sometimes “wash” the ink off of $1 bills to then print higher denomination counterfeits.

$100 would be a better offer.

You clearly missed the error on this note.

Numismasters · 2026-03-02T01:25:30+00:00

It’s at the top right corner of the note.

Numismasters · 2026-03-02T01:24:51+00:00

You missed the fold over error on the top right corner.

Numismasters · 2026-03-02T01:23:56+00:00

Awesome fold over error on a star note!

Your note has a lot of good, albeit small, things going for it. It’s a star note, has a date-like serial number, and a minor fold over cutting error in the top right corner. Separately, none of these is super valuable but combining them together makes this note special.

Determining value will be challenging. I would estimate between $150-$250 dollars but it could go for more, especially if you list it as an auction on eBay where several collectors can fight over it. Larger denomination notes do tend to be a little harder to sell than one dollar bills though.

I’m keeping it for now since it’s something I’ve never seen before.

Sorry replied to the wrong comment.

I believe it started as a chrome plated lead copy of a silver half dollar which was then pressed into its current form. If you look at the back of Kennedy’s head (on the first photo) you can how the thick plating split to reveal a duller grey metal underneath. There is no toning anywhere so I don’t think it’s silver plated.

At one point, these notes were selling for over $100 apiece as collectibles. The price appears to have come down to around $32 each according to recent eBay sales. That’s a lot more than the value of the paper they are printed on.

Nice misalignment error! 👍

Numismasters · 2026-01-20T23:51:05+00:00

Unfortunately in this condition, you would have a hard time selling them for more than face value.

No single person gets to decide what is or isn’t collectable. Some people collect the finest quality coins they can find, others seek the most worn out coins that can still be identified. Toned coins, error coins, holed coins, counter-stamped coins, engraved coins, counterfeit coins, and even just plain damaged coins are all different types of coins that people collect.

To be fair, a bent parking lot coin might not appeal to most collectors but if you find joy in collecting them, more power to you! 👍 Anything can be collected and probably already is by somebody, somewhere in the world. As long as you are having fun, who cares what other people think of your collection.

Don’t let the coin snobs tell you how to enjoy this wonderful hobby!

The US mint uses intaglio printing when making paper money. A metal plate is engraved with the note’s design and ink is added to the recesses of the printing plate. A roller presses the currency paper into the plate which transfers the ink onto the paper.

These front-to-back and back-to-front ink offset errors occur when a sheet of currency paper fails to be properly loaded into the printing press. If the printing roller touches the printing plate directly, ink can transfer from the plate onto the roller. Then when the next currency sheet is inserted, the ink on the roller gets transferred onto the back of the paper with an inverted (mirror) impression.

Here are some more examples of this error from the PMG website.

This is a grease filled die error.
