Reference one: https://www.pcgs.com/news/will-us-mint-once-again-produce-coins-for-other-countries The U.S. Mint last produced coins for a foreign country in 1984. Reference two: In all, the Mint struck coins for more than 40 foreign governments – including Hawaii from 1883-1884 – before the practice ended in the 1980s. https://www.usmint.gov/learn/history/coin-production Maybe if this gets posted twice by two different people you will finally believe it?
Posted by to two people with no people skills. Grow up!!! Learn how to communicate. Ridge rings is the last thing I posted.
Nobody cares about your ridge rings! The US Mint stopped producing foreign coins in 1984. It's not possible the Mint made a quarter on a foreign planchet in 1994. Perhaps you think some leprechauns thought they could fund their crime syndicate by minting US quarters on Irish planchets. Is that their little scheme?! Are we counterfeiting quarters now?!?!?!?!?!?!?! That's the way to riches, I'll tell you what.
Do you know what a ridge ring is? Get off of the foreign planchet kick. Mike diamond called this type of anomaly ridge rings. Ridge rings occasionally crop up among older, copper-alloy cents and among other denominations.
The term "Ridge Rings" is related to Die Deterioration. Not just for US coins, but for any country that mints coins and use their dies a bit too long. article about foreign rings ==> https://www.coinworld.com/news/worl...-raised-rings-on-world-coins-remains.all.html And of course, a "ridge" could be part of a design too. The Pence example is 23.66mm diameter. Your 94 quarter looks fully formed to 24.3mm. But let me ask you a question. How can you prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that, say your quarter was minted on top of a foreign planchet, or even a foreign coin? What would have to happen in order for that to occur? Have you considered the mint machine basically compressed a bit too much and made it a tad thinner, which could accelerate die deterioration ? I believe you are actually stating that a foreign coin was minted on a US Press. But If a foreign coin was used that had a Ridge Ring .. wouldn't it be changed by the minting process (and wouldn't you see ghosting) .. the die isn't going to skip over a ridge ring just because.
Avery, please explain how a foreign planchet got struck 10 years after the Mint stopped minting foreign coins. And may I ask, what is it you do for a living?
