Coin strike error?

Stu asked:


I’m not a neumismatist (sp?), and i can’t find any helpful information about this coin that i have. It’s just a regular quarter (i think it may be a state quarter–it’s put away so i can’t really remember) that has the tail end of a penny stamped over the quarter design. i tried to do the same thing to another quarter with a hammer but the design didn’t transfer. has anyone ever seen anything like this? is it maybe a mint error or someone with heavy machinery just messing around? could it be worth something?
