Opinion on 2 Quarters Please

This is my first post and I hope to get some input as to what everyone thinks about these 2 quarters. If the pictures need to be re-taken please let me know and I will be happy to re-take them.

There are lines on both quarters that appear to be in the shape of another coin.

I appreciate your assistance and opinions.

All the best, Lisa

    @lholleman97.... Welcome aboard. Good pictures.... Unfortunately, those lines are from rolling machines (when the coins are put into rolls and the paper ends crimped) and add no numismatic value. Cheers, RickO

    Agree with ricko. It's damage. The location and severity can vary on the coin based on the machine set up

  • Thank you so much! I had no idea a machine could do something like that to coins. Glad I asked and thank you both again for you quick response and knowledge.
    Have a wonderful day!

    @lholleman97 Welcome!

    What I like about this post is someone is asking for input/opinions from the members of the forum, many of whom I have found to have a lot if knowledge and information to share, instead of claiming to have some undiscovered, one of a kind error and not accepting the asked for input.

    @lholleman keep searching coins and seeking info.
