Alana333 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) I’ve always read that it’s good practice to look with a 10x loop at any new finds, just to ensure there aren’t any mintage errors that may add to the value of the coin. I’m green when it comes to submitting coins for grading but was wondering if I should pay the extra charge to classify this submission as an error??? Or Is it even an error at all??? Thanks!

Greenstang Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Welcome to the Forum Not sure what you are seeing as an error, all I see is some common Machine Doubling. There is no value there as your quarter is worth a quarter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coinbuf Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Welcome to the forum, most of the time when you see doubling on the incuse portions of these quarters it is from strike doubling. Like Greenstang I just see this as strike doubling or from die deterioration, both worthless forms of doubling. Also; just to clarify; strike doubling is not an error but rather it would be a variety, so first you need to check and see if it is an already known variety. If not, you would have to submit it to have the variety authenticated before you could send it to a third party grader for grading including the variety on the label assuming the grading company recognizes that variety, many varieties are too minor for the major TPG's to attribute so you would need to check that also.
