    I have a 2014P Everglades quarter that has the date stamped at the 4 o'clock position on the reverse (instead of at the bottom/ 6 o'clock position).
    Is this a common error?
    If any expert can advise, please
    Thanks in Advance

    Pictures needed.
    Could be a Rotated Die Strike

    Here's a pic of the "normal" one on the left, and the "error" on the right. When flipped 180 degrees, the reverse image/date is 90 degrees off-set. (Sorry, my pic is not the best)

    If you flip your coin over, top to bottom (not side to side),
    and the top of the reverse points to 9:00, as you show,
    then it's a 90 degree Counter-Clockwise Rotated Die.

    please take a picture with one side facing the mirror and the other out so we can confirm the rotated die error

    Thanks Fred,...I appreciate your feedback. Any idea if this is common?--does it add any value to the coin? 2nd quarter pic.jpg

    Awesome. And good catch. I would be thrilled to find that.

    Thank you all for your feedback..My wife collects these state quarters for the Grandkids, and also saves their birth-year U.S. coins, in a piggy bank. Hopefully, they'll appreciate it 70 years from now! She gets the credit for discovering the error. I would think this is a fairly common event ( rotated die strike) with the millions of U.S. coins minted yearly

    This is the kind of coin that can spark their interest in coin collecting when they get older. Especially knowing the two of you doing it together along with the story of how you found it.
