Minor rotations, such as you describe, are common and have no added value.

Much like the SC one - bland, featureless and ugly. At least they didn't select a peanut. Few of the state quarter designs rise to basic mediocrity, so GA, SC and others are plenty of company. They were popular because of state affiliations, not the artwork.

"Oh....don't forget Wyoming. That sucker has to be the absolute worst." I'm still waiting for an explanation of why the guy on the horse (zebra ?) is carrying a serving tray with a hamburger on it? What, no fries with that?

One of the ugliest of the bunch -- right up there....well, down there....with Georgia.

Fat. You have an overweight penny. If you give it more exercise through circulation, it will lose the fat.

They were running low on "7s" at the Mint, so they used fewer of them, and also attached some without enough glue. One of them fell off of your quarter, and two others were "cut-down" to half size so they would be able to make more coins with the correct dates. Also, the drummer hurt his left hand and that's why it's in a bandage.

EF. Commonly called "EF-AU" when bought by the roll. Worth melt.

Next time, please post sharp, in-focus photos. This will go a long way to avoiding confusion. Please remember that folks trying to help have only your posted photos and comments - no other information to respond to your questions. Give them all the help you can by being clear and concise.

Not a doubled die. Mechanical and possible die deterioration causes. No value.

This is a sample handwritten fair copy of a letter sent to the New Orleans Mint concerning plans to close the facility as a coinage mint and retain it only as an assay office. Each page in the fair copy journal was prenumbered from 1 to 500, and it also included pages for an alphabetical index. More than one letter, telegram, or memorandum could occupy a page.

Until late 1897 US Mint clerks made handwritten "fair copies" of correspondence in large journals. This order from Treasury Secretary Gage ended that practice.

A reputable jeweler would only sell real gold. Fenntucky Mike is likely correct about the sticker.

The coins were never polished. Silver was not used in experimental US Lincoln cents.

IN the fall they occasionally issued 5-leg bison....

Why not just make little coin-shaped containers of hot air? Just as valuable as "crapto".

Useless photo. It is from the old Benson Collection (Goldberg Auction) and the one you saw is a very poor version.

The jeweler will not be willing to tell you anything without a much better photo.

Order a copy of Mark Goodman's book on coin photography, then come back and post your results. (Most would avoid an 1889-CC that had not been authenticated.)

"1983 D Quarter damaged ??" Yes.

For the silver coins (Barber's design) a normal mirror-like proof dies was used (nothing but a polished die). For Saint-Gaudens and Pratt gold, the coins were struck from new dies on a medal press. If satin proofs were wanted, the coins were delivered as-is. If sandblast (incorrectly called "matte") was wanted, the coins were individually sandblasted just like medals; this made each coin unique as far as precise texture was involved. The minor coins - Lincoln cent and Buffalo nickel - were issued in too large a quantity to individually sandblast the coins, so new dies were sandblasted, hardened, and then used to strike proofs on a medal press.

Note that for matter proof Lincolns and Buffaloes, the dies were sandblasted, not the coins.

Do you mean "comrade" or "friend?"

Ordinary circulated dimes. Parts of the reverse bands aren't even visible - so it can't possibly have "full bands" (or even a small combo, or maybe a little trio playing at a small wedding, or a solo saxophonist standing on a street corner trying to toot jazz).

The card is of recent manufacture and the coin appears to be a 1902 Edward VII sovereign. The front label indicated 22k or 0.916 with is the English standard. Indians have long been buyers of gold, especially in very small quantities. Jewelers have traditionally packaged gold in small packets to cater to this trade and help control their inventory. If the company is well established, it is likely the coin is good. You can send a sharp, clear photo to the jeweler and see if they can confirm the packaging, etc.
