    20180607_115244-COLLAGE.jpg Does anyone know how this fail happened. What causes this mistake. Or is this an error coin. The right claw has the image of the log( if that's where it's standing) prited over the claw.

    Here's another 94 quarter with less wear and tear and dings for comparison.
    FYI, the "log" is a quiver of arrows tied together.

    Quick question cause this coin really bugs me. Do u no why if it's a quiver of arrows tied together why is one arrow tied on or over the claw. I see it lined up not like if it were a scratch. I really don't know much about coins but for yrs I have collected coins that draw my attention. This one really bugs me.

    I really do not see it the same way that you do. And that is a main concern of how other people think they see things that really are not that way.

    A die is a FIXED piece of metal that stamps an image onto a flat piece of metal. The only way something changes AFTER 24 YEARS is that metal get easily displaced from hits and scraps and stuff over those 24 years.

    parts of the claw have been hit and are not there any more. it was mostly scraped off. Which makes it look "under" the arrows when there are still minor remnants on top of the arrows because that is where they are. The metal doesn't flex up and over the claw.

    Think of a car that has been used for 24 years. If you never do any work to it how is it 24 years later ?? What if it has dents. Are the dents that way from the factory? Are all the problems correlated to when it left the factory? Or can it be related to things that happened after it left the factory and when it was used for 24 years ??

    I have much to learn. I never thought I be so obsessed with all this coins I have. I been looking up information about rare or error coins and I have lots that I wouldn't even know where to check them first. Lots of the words of things that make a coin valuable. See I have a 1968 dime no mint mark and a 1975 dime no mint mark. After reading about ways one can tell if the coin is of value I was lost. So I just ask about coins that I see look different. I feel a bit embarrassed now with my posts. I'm just a curious person. Thank you for the feed back. I think I'll educate myself so i can gain coin knowledge.

    You shouldn't be embarrassed about asking questions when you're new and want to learn, however I understand your hesitation. There are many posts on here from people who just want answers and don't want to learn. I think I can speak for many CT members when I say that we enjoy putting in the time and effort to share our knowledge with those that want to learn and only a few will take the to time to post a quick reply to those that want us to do all the research.

    They following sites have lots of good info about the minting process and errors. Read and bookmark them
    http://doubleddie.com/1801.html
    http://www.varietyvista.com/
    http://www.error-ref.com/

    If you don't already have a copy, buy "A Guidebook of United States Coins" (the Redbook). Lots and lots and lots of info and history about US coins. Without a doubt, it will be the best $12-15 you ever spend on the hobby.

    Keep learning. This is an anonymous public forum, so you can expect some level of snarky responses to questions that might be considered basic knowledge. Just live with it. However, many can recognize posts from people who want to learn and will help.

    Best of luck
