It has a die clash on it, what does that do for the coin? It looks like scratches in the pictures, but it is really visible through a eye loop.

    Whether a die clash or scratches - and it certainly looks like the latter - it does nothing for the coin. (Edited to account for the “W”.)

    I'm not seeing anything but scratches in your photos.

    I have not been able to find a (W) West Point quarter in circulation ... and I have been looking for even just one of the these coins.
    Nice find!

    The scratches add damage to the coin.

    On the reverse through N. Mariana Island, up through American and stops at the O in Memorial

    I thought that all the W quarters were going to be circulated?

    Maybe a better picture

    She doesn't have an eye either, it's just a hole .

    I do see the clash but I would not think it would add value in that condition.

    They were all placed into circulation but many are uncirculated as they were pulled from new rolls.

    There might be a die clash, crack or scratch. If there are, forget them. All I see is a W, that's where your value and interest lies.

    His interest might be in collecting die clashes. If it is a die clash the fact it is a W quarter makes it more collectible than a P or D quarter due to limited production of the W quarters.

    Congratulations on your W quarter find. You have found the 2019 American Memorial W quarter which typically sells on Ebay for more than most of the 10 versions of the W quarters depending on the condition of the quarter.🤑

    Nice to see a W quarter still showing up in the wild 4 years after issue date.😉

    Thank you for sharing your find!😎

    @Matt97932... I do not see a die clash.... Nice W quarter though.... I still have not found one in change, and I do a lot of cash shopping. Just found one in a Coinstar reject slot, of all places... Cheers, RickO

    Its only redeeming feature is the "W".

    All glory is fleeting.
