    Not really considered an error, more of a die event, an acceptable part of minting. There is no premium for it, worth 1cent.

    Those bubbles are caused by zinc dust. It was an early plating problem they had when they switched to zinc planchets. 

    So it is an error a plateing error? Lamination error? Not an error?Possible Value? Thank you, I do appreciate the help, I will remember to start a new thread each time I have a question about a coin. Thank You, Capone1929

    Why do you keep adding more coins to this posting?

    You should start a new post for each coin instead of piggybacking on someone else's.

    Well this was a thread I started, the quarter above is mine so dont think im piggybacking anything, but I didnt know I should start one for each, I appologize for that, however you dont need to be so rude about it and be a jerk, Im a grown man that deserves respect not no little kid that needs scaulded, I simply didnt know, Thanks for the help!

  5. Hello all, I found this interesting 1984 d Lincoln Cent while coin roll hunting, I believe it is a gas bubble error/lamination error it also has flaking on the obverse and appears to have a double date and MM as well Appears to be offcenter with a slight rotation to the reverse! It is Red-R/B with complete pinwheels on both o/r of coin or almost full pinwheels and has luster! Major distortion and lots of bubbles on both o/r! Looks like the surface of the moon but is actually a really nice coin otherwise! What exactly type of error is this? Multi Error? Value? Any help would be appreciated, I appologize if I send too many pictures as I am only trying to give you a good view of the coin. Thank You, Sincerely, Capone1929

  6. Hello, all! This is a 1985 strange P mint mark Washington Quarter I found diameter is larger than normal quarter, weighs 5.5 grams, has very apperent writing that sticks above the surface appears to be a second liberty, also other lettering, and edge reeds seem odd, obverse inside collar rim appears to be reeded or something simular to a canadian type of collar rim, also at at certain angles it looks like 1983 and others 1985 5 looks like 3, look closely above mint mark very apperent lettering, Wrong planchet? Broadstruck? Double Struck? Off metal? Greased die, (last photo shows how 5 looks like 3), Any help would be appreciated, Error? If so approx value? Thank You, Sincerely, Capone1929

  8. Found this interesting 1981 D washington quarter in a roll from the bank while coin roll hunting today! It does not appear to be post MMD or enviromental! It has nice decent surfaces! I do not see any grind or tool marks on it and it all appears to flow like lava or liquid as well as appears to have other letters around the L especially a B between the L and I in liberty and L looks like upside down T, also "of" is clearly visable struck in Washingtons cheek. Appears to have defective peeling clad like error crack around IGWT to neck, on the reverseThe eagles break and part of head looks struck through or well missing and counter sunk like struck through debri, ridges on edge are there but appears to have several clipped errors and liquid like flow, it also appears to have the same diameter of a SBA dollar or Quarter but thinner! Appears to me that it is a quarter struck on SBA dollar planchet(if this is even possible Im not sure however SBAs were minted in 81') , a quarter on a nickel planchet, or wrong metal, however reeds are not smooth. I have not weighed it, but can send weight when I arrive back home, Please view all photos closely, as plenty are on the way, I sure would appreciate some input and yes weight can say a lot, I would just like some initial input and help, Please and Thank You, Sincerely, Copone1929
