I have been taking apart an old piano from the early 1900's and the deeper I get in to it the older the coins I find are! One of the quarters I found in it may be a mint mistake I'm not sure. When I found it it never occurred to me that whatever has been done to it could be a mint mistake until i seen some similar while look up a different quarter I found. So if you can please help me it's a 1967 quarter and the outer rim is rolled up I'm Hopeing my pictures are clear. I also found a 1969 quarter that just didn't look right I have more I'll tell about later

Welcome to the forum.
I agree this coin is not a mint error and was damaged after it left the mint.

Hello, looks like makings of ring to me. Looks like it was clamped in middle to hold it somehow so they could spin it while they were tapping on it to form a ring.
