I found this today while coin roll hunting. Looks like a grease strike because the only portion of the 1976 that is damaged is the 7 in the 1976.

    Errors are not considered damaged coins.

    I agree with the others here-grease filled die. It's a neat coin!

    Nice find indeed! Reminds me of my 1 87 quarter I snagged on great collections.
