Hi KoalaBear777,
What has happened is that shortly after claiming your FC last week at 01:44 EST , you then completed the 1st Quest of your new week within 5 minutes of claiming your FC at 01:49 EST.
That meant that your window of opportunity to claim this week and also have that first quest count before it was 7 days old, was very short. For the quest that expired to count, you would have needed to have claimed after 01:44 EST when you could next claim, and BEFORE the time reached 01:49 EST when the quest reached 7 days old since the last step was completed.
You claimed at 02:44 EST.
As you were unable to claim before the time on the quest reached 01:49 EST, that quest no longer counted towards the 8 needed for 2FC.
We recommend that you never start the last step of any quests shortly after claiming FC for the previous week. As long as the time to get a quest completed allows it, we usually recommend that you don't complete any quests until at least the following day. The exception on when to delay starting that last step would be any quests that take a long time to complete, like some of the aged wine and champagne quests which can take days for the last step to complete.
When you leave a much longer time between when you claim your FC and complete the last step on a quest for the new week, that then gives you more time the following week to claim before any quests would expire for reaching 7 days old since they were completed.
To help you with timings, in your Quest window, the Show Quests button when clicked on, will show you all of your completed Quests that you also claimed the coins for, along with a time for how long ago each quest was completed. When you complete the last step on any quest you must always collect the coins for the quest so you can see them in that section and see how much time is left on each completed quest. Not collecting the coins does not prevent that 7 day timer starting, the timer starts the second the last step is completed.
When you are aiming to earn 2FC those times can help you to know if you have enough time to get more quests completed, and your FC claimed, BEFORE before any quests you completed in the new week reach 7 days old since completion and will then no longer count.
