Message:: [QUOTE="VistaCruiser69, post: 4529563, member: 107016"]A number of years ago I had begun setting aside 1965 quarters that I would get in my change at the carwash because I thought they were really old.  Recently however, I ended up spending them since I discovered that they really aren't that "limited" in numbers, despite their age. However, I set aside a two - three of them that looked to be in great shape for their age.  Here's one that I set aside because it was so shiny and clean.  Closer inspection I'm starting to suspect there is die deterioration.  On the reverse there is a elevated sliver of material that runs from the "F" through the "A" in "...Of America..." and ends at the top of the Eagle's left wing. On the obverse, I see lines below the "Y" of Liberty.  The "I" of In also looks a bit strange. Would all of this be from a die crack/die deterioration? [ATTACH=full]1121910[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1121911[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1121912[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
