while going through this roll. this popped up. it has a bluish tint on obverse and reverse. Any thoughts (not rinsed properly or something of that nature). best i can do with my inferior photography skills.

    Possible improperly annealed quarter? I'll let the error guys confirm.

    Environmental damage.... spent time in dirt or other chemically active surrounding. Cheers, RickO

    Looks like it to me, especially if it was in an unopened roll.

    Sintered planchet?

    I think improperly annealed planchet as well.

    Yep, improper annealing. Very cool find.

    Agree improper annealing.

    Came out of a roll of mint-fresh 2021s, still lustrous... yeah probably improperly annealed. Don't see any way to explain environmental damage.

    Is it worth getting slabbed?

    I found one similar last night. I've run across a few of these lately and they are almost always from the Denver mint

    To me it depends on eye appeal. I have a few that will definitely be sent in because I think they're beautiful and unique

    I don't think so - it can cost $40-$65 to slab it....

    Not worth it in my view, but it's not my coin.

    Even if I have to keep it this one is going in

  • Robot1010Robot1010 Posts: 227 ✭✭✭

    I agree they don't command much. I have too many to grade but these are for my collection
