Umm, I got 2 uncirculated 2026 USA quarters today, fresh from the Denver mint. The one on the left is perfect, the one on the right is a defective misprint... (lemmy.world)

I'm gonna keep both, but dunno how to properly have misprint/misstamped coins appraised for value...

I'd say wait a bit to see if the error is found by other users and becomes a thing. Or maybe open a forum thread there where people with more expertise can chine in.

    Today I've studied the coins carefully, in better lighting in the daylight. I think I know what the defect actually is now..

    I think it was the top coin in the coin roll, where the machine that rolls/stamps the ends of the coin rolls most likely pressed into the end coins. I probably just ended up with the top coin out of a fresh roll, there's probably a matching tails side coin defect from the bottom end of the roll out there somewhere...

    Probably not quite worth as much as I was hoping, but still neither have been circulated, so I still plan on keeping both of them.
