2018 D quarter error

Error reverse above wing and back of bird's neck. It appears to be a die crack error. I call it "bird hunting".

It looks like a gouge on the coin to me.

Die crack definitely. I will send a better pic soon. It is not recessed.

 

I hope the photo is better than the first one.

It will be the first time I've ever seen a die crack in the middle of a field that didn't connect to anything.

Usually a hit to the coin moves metal. In this case, since the metal didn't compress (which it never does) the metal moves usually up. Kinda like platetechtonics. Metal gets pushed over some and up. So it would be raised with a section next to it that is down.

just looks like regular damage to me.

 

Looks like a gouge to me. Die chips are always connected to something, usually a high point. I've never heard of a die chip in an open field.

 

I said die crack.

 

Sorry, I did say chips big the same thing is true for cracks.

 

Die chip is a mound of metal usually in the middle of the field away from the rim. Also called interior die break. U.S. coin guide.

 

Gouged. Worth 25 cents.

Go learn how coins are minted before you continue to waste your time and ours.

 

Wow!!

 

Ruthless!!

 

If you feel that way don't take time to respond. Time not wasted. My time is my time to do with as I please. Thanks

 

Congratulations! You have won a place on my ignore list.

 

Thanks

 

It’s called honesty. Why delude yourself? It only takes away time from the important things in life.

 

Meow found this. It is a little nub in the middle of nowhere.

 

I suppose the title of the post might have been - "I think this is a die chip - Is it?" or "Is this an error?"

If the OP were coming to show something new, better photographs would have been helpful to convince our knowledgeable experts.

 

What year quarter dollar is that, please @MeowtheKitty ? Just the other day @Fred Weinberg was instructing us about gas bubbles on US quarters. Quite interesting. Might this be one of those.

(I betcha someone is going to suggest that it is probably best to start a new thread with your coin.)
