The traveler decides when traveling becomes dull. If the traveler keeps their spirits and their sense of adventure up, there is not guarantee that the journey will ever become dull.
The "2" was added by someone who used a metal punch after the coin was in circulation. That makes it a damaged coin worth face value only.
Answer So you have a Silver Quater and want to know if it will be worth anything as time goes by. Time has nothing to do with the value of coins. What makes them valuable is how many of that particular coin was minted that year. It's the amount of coins in circulation that makes a coin worth anything and of course the condition of the coin. If it's scratched it could be hundreds of years old, but not many collectors will want it scratched and even if they do, you won't get the full price of the coin unless it's in perfect condition. The best way to see if your coin is worth anything is to take it to a place that sells coins and see what they say regarding your coin.
A frosted proof coins were issued by the US Mint prior to 1936. In appearance they have a mirrorlike field [[the field of a coin is the flat areas not covered by the design]]with the design of the coin appearing to be frosted or dull in comparison to the field. This type of proof was again used on proof coins in the late 1970s and are refered to as "cameo" proofs. A mirror proof [[also called a Brilliant Proof]] has a mirrorlike surface over the entire coin. This type of proof was issued by the Mint from 1936 until sometime in the late 1970s.
8-15-11>>> The first thing is the coin can't have a mintmark. Proofs were only struck in Philadelphia at this time and were NOT relased for circulation, less than 6,000 were struck. I don't know what makes you think the coin is proof, but the best thing to do is take it to a coin dealer.
dirt
Makes sense
it makes a very dull grey / brownish color
All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.
She is so beautiful she makes the sun seem dull
That could be a very rare coin. Take it to a coin dealer to have it appraised. Call them first and ask. Do not tell anyone you have it. Virtually EVERY double-headed coin that turns up in circulation is a fake. They're called magician's coins and sell for a few bucks at novelty shops. If your coin makes a hollow or dull sound when clinked on a table it's a magician's coin.
dull and boring like poo! ;)

Because using it produces wear, which makes it become dull.
It makes absolutely no difference. The dull side is simply the result of how the aluminum goes through the rollers at the factory.
That entirely depends on the type of coin you mean. Describing it only as "this" coin makes your question impossible to answer.
That makes it easier to distinguish them.
