Happy Friday to all! Want to share 2 ATB partial collar quarters I just got in mail. 2013 White Mountain and 2018 Voyageurs ATB. 2013 and 2018 ATB errors seem to be rarer, when compared to their 2016-17 counterparts. Partial collar surely is just a minor error. However, with the good Mint detection these days, major ATB errors are really hard to find (and expensive). I think partial collar is one inexpensive way to collect ATB errors. Wonder if CT members have other partial collar ATB?
Totally agree, Fred. So few major error for the NP series. The best I can find on NP quarters is a broadstruck... BTW, do you think this will be designated as broadstruck rather than MAD? And do you think the obverse scratch happens because of the error? Thanks in advance for comments.
It's broadstruck, and the damage is from a counting machine jamming the coin. A shame, but it happens with these Quarters. (could also be called an uncentered broad strike)
Many thanks, Fred. Broadstruck sounds more ‘major error’ than MAD, so it’s glad to know. Wish it can go off just a little more, so it can be called an off center. BTW, the Maryland D/S I got from you is very nice. Thanks!
Agree. There is so fun to see errors in circulating coin designs. And I like its larger size (as compared to penny and dime).
You found a couple of nice ones! Congrats and thanks for sharing. It's nice to see a real Mint error in the error forum.
