Thank you for letting me join your group. Newbie learning about error coins. Does something like this make this coin more valuable than 25 cents?

Is that the "Old Line"?

Sorry, there’s no error there. There’s a raised ridge of displaced metal to the right side of the gouge, which is a hallmark of post mint damage.
Yes, the “Old Line”. Thank you for the responses. Very helpful information. I’m happy to be part of this discussion group and absolutely fascinated with coins.
Your 50% correct. It is a gouge, just not the type of gouge you're looking for.

So the moral of the story: There's a major difference between a coin gouge and a die gouge.
