Today I came across a 2013 D Mount Rushmore that seems to be an error. The head side looks to be stamped good, the only thing that I can see is a very slight ring just inside the text all the way around the quarter. It isn't stamped into it, it looks more like a bluing or darkening of the metal. On the back is where I believe is the error. It has a copper ring around the very edge, no lip on the egde, and looks to be almost blank except for the center where you can barely make out a nose and silhouette of washingtons face. The coin seems to be slightly dished. Its almost as if something was pushing up on the middle of the face side when it was stamped and only part of the stamping transferred. I looked online and couldn't find anything like this and it looks too clean to have been done by hand. Hopefully someone on here can help me figure out if this is an error? Thank you to everyone.
Could we see a pic of both sides be sure to crop your pics and select full image when you post. Welcome to CT Dave
I’ll get a picture of the head side when I get the chance. I left it in my desk at work. It just looks like a regular 2013 quarter. No defects that I can see other than regular wear. What kind of of damage could this be if it is? That was my first thought but the surface is too perfect, almost like a machines surface. That’s the reason I thought it was an error and not damage. And thank you for the welcome.
Hello, I have just started looking deeper into coins I have collected for years. I also have a Mt. Rushmore quarter with some errors??, I guess it is a error. I just don't know where to take it to get opinions on what is wrong with this coin. Can someone please help me
Not quite sure what is going on at this point, but it would be better if you started a separate thread of your own as this post is nearly a year old.
