Does this 1976 Quarter resemble any Metal Detector finds anyone's made?

Does this 1976 Quarter resemble any Metal Detector finds anyone's made? I had been hoping it was missing the cladding from the mint but it weighs out too heavy for that. The reeding on the edge is in good shape.

Thanks!

    Yes I went detector I found red clads come from grass too much wet. Like sprinkle water everyday cause clads red.

    Yep as others have said, I have dug many like that one... Shine 'em up and pass them at the corner store or coin star machine when you have enough.

    Clad doesn't come out of the ground nice looking like silver. I put mine in a rock tumbler to get the crud off.
