And that thumb print proves they were hand selected.

Why not post a photo of both sides of one or two of the coins you thought were counterfeit and graded genuine and see what some of our members think. I know that I would certainly like to see them as I have an interest in counterfeits.

If your insinuating that your 1970 Quarter is stamped on a 1941 Canadian Quarter, you are wrong. Your quarter clearly shows a copper core whereas a 1942 Canadian Quarter is Silver.

Most books are usually on the high side. What I do is check the ebay SOLD prices and average them out to get an idea of what a certain coin is selling for. There is no foolproof system for pricing coins except what people are currently paying for them and even that can vary from time to time, depending on demand for that coin.

Then ask your coin shop if they can explain how that could happen during the striking of a coin.
Better yet, ask him how much he will give you for it. Anything over a dime and your up on the deal.

I agree nowhere close to mint condition. Worth face value.
This is the Forum for coins, you should really post currency in the PMG (Paper Money Grading) Forum.

Just looks like a nice business strike. Please highlight where you think there is doubling so we don't have to search over the whole coin.

Nice find. I have heard of this but never seen one before. Send it of to a TPG so it is certified and protected.

Another fantasy coin from Ratsie33

Could be from a vending machine, coin wrapping/counting machine etc. but it was not done during the striking of the coin.      It is just some form of machine damage.

It is just PMD. Something has struck that side of the nickel causing damage from the " banana peel" down to the A in America.

Here again, no doubling or RPM

You have more patience than I have. I would have opened it the day I got it. Also I bet you will find a lot of MD on the incuse copy on the reverse. I read on another forum that about 70% of State Quarters have some MD in that area.

That article refers to a Dropped Letter which shows up incuse on a coin, a MPD shows as raised on a coin, which is what the IH shows.

I respect your numismatic knowledge VKurtB,  but in this case I believe this is a genuine 1 in Neck Snow-1 Variety.  It is only the tip of the 1 that shows, the bottom "serif" is a bead on the necklace so you can't compare length as there is nothing to compare it to. Also a Snow-1 Variety is recognised by PCGS who have stated the following on their website,
I have also posted the following comparison picture showing the OP coin and a Genuine1 in Neck. Except for the amount of wear, they look the same to me..

I think the key word in your post is "potentially".  Why was it not sent out to be certified or recorded somewhere? I have seen numerous posts where someone thought they had found a 1993 WAM only to find out it is a CAM that was either damaged or struck from a worn die. Unless someone can produce a certified 1993 WAM, I would have to say that they are non existent.

Dustin-
In order to help you with the WAM, CAM varieties, I am posting the following illustration. It has been posted many times on various forums so I'm not quit sure who to attribute it to. Notice that the only years with a variety are 1992,1998, 1999 & 2000, any other year the AM is normal.

Looks like a well corroded cent.

Looks like Environmental Damage.  Maybe it was buried at one time.

Welcome to the Forum
First of all, coins are not printed, they are minted or struck. Your right on your coin, it is just damage, value 25 cents.
If your referring to a " misprint" as an error, then you have to learn the minting process and what constitutes an error. An error can only occur during the striking of a coin so anything that happens after that is just damage. There are a limited number of things that can happen during the striking of a coin but there are countless things that can happen once the coin leaves the striking chamber. Things like dings, gouges, scratches,  distorted letters, wear, flattened letters, discolouration etc. are just some of the things that can most of the time be defined as damage. For help in what a genuine error is, study some of the websites available such as "error-ref.com"  to learn in distinguishing an error from damage. You are going to have to do your homework but after awhile it will come naturally and you will be able to see the differences for yourself.

Much better. Confirms my original assessment of DDD.

Sorry but I don't think so.
Also Die Doubling is a Variety, not an Error.
