Question
 Dear Joe,
    I have this quarter (dated year 1995) it looks like it had shifted in the machine to the right hand side some how. You can see where the force of the machine had started down on the coin but then some-way shifted, the letters in the word Liberty (RTY) hit the rim of the coin.
The coins edge is smooth as well, with no ridges.

I had one person offer me $50.00 sight unseen, now I have this person here telling me its only worth about $10.00 or $15.00! I feel I know better than that.

Any of your expert advice would be so Greatly Appreciated.
Sincerely,
D


Answer
Hi Donna,

Personally, I think the key to this coin is that it has the smooth edge, not so much the shift in striking.

I think the coin is worth about $75 and that is what I would offer for it.

You can email me directly at JoeHylas@aol.com and I will supply shipping instructions.
