1974 quarter error

No one was making fun of the OP, merely trying to save him money.

As for you, I await your posting of your slabs showing your discovery pieces.
Yes, there are many errors and varieties out there awaiting discovery.

Back in about 1969 I tried to get one variety recognized.

No one agreed, today it is listed as the 1943/2 war nickel.

Also, found the 1909 S inverted MM on a Barber half dollar.

And others, many unlisted RPD's & RPM's.

So, many of us know of what we speak.

(?) I would love to see your errors all talk no walk.

 

Anyone can identify?

 

Yes, it's a Plated Conn. quarter.

 

Agreed-note its not an error someone just added some material to it for example to make it more shiny and attractive its still just a quarter.

 

If you notice there is wear and no exsposure. I know about platting and have come across 5-10 a month. This is what is called experimental planchet during the transition similar to the known experimental planchets during 1999 production. But I am sure without doubt it is not platted.

 

Your disagreeing with the great Weinberg Trust me when it comes to stuff like this what he says is what it is.You can disagree all you want though,since it is an experimental planchet send it in to PCGS and back the truck up!!!!!.

 

Simple solution:

Weigh your Conn. Quarter

It will weigh between 5.7 and 5.9 grams.

Normal Clad Quarter weight is 5.7 grams


Your coin will weigh normal weight, or one
or two tenth's more, due to the plating.

It is not an Experimental Planchet. I've handled
well over a dozen of 'em, and your's isn't it -

 

The weight is exactly 5.6

 

I will cut in half we will see who's accurate in assessment.

Is/was there such a thing as an Experimental Planchet? More information about that would be very informative.
