Well I hope someone else chimes in on this for your benefit, because to me this looks like a cast copy. Why someone would copy a 1983 Qtr is beyond my imagination.

I think it's real and AU/ U.

It's an even worse strike from worn dies than typical.

Was it found in circulation recently?

Don't mock me too much, but for a bit of time I collected the 1983 P washington quarters.  I bought all the MS66 I could find when i had money to spare.  I got up to only 9 before I realized I was a loser and shouldn't put my money here.  Started selling them one at a time on ebay and I have one listed currently.  The 1983P is part of the NGC top 100 modern set which in part is why I started collecting them.

Hello thank you and I’m grateful  for your suggestion and comments on a particular note it’s been with me for decades. Well seems they’re a chance this could be important

Not sure why 83-P quarters are valued higher but millions were struck from worn die pairs. More than a billion coins were struck from both mints and not enough dies were produced to strike great coins. Just imagine how many die pair would be needed to strike that many coins !

Hello thanks again I’ll say there’s nothing really significant about this 1983 P Quarter I thought something special the way it’s made thanks again

Can this be considered error or just ugly?

not an error, just damage.  nothing but a quarter
