<p>[QUOTE="Neal, post: 3584726, member: 43872"]Nice quarter! The year 1983 must have been big for off-center quarters. I seem to remember a similar post a few months ago with a 1983 quarter. Back in 1983 or 1984 I was visiting the small town bank where I had worked as a teenager. One of the officers was showing me around and visiting. As a teller we used to have a small cardboard "mutilated box" to toss unusable coins. One of them had five or six off-center 1983 P quarters. They were all from the same mint bag, although they each had some scuffing from the coin counting machine's rubber wheel. Each was 33-35% off center and all along the exact same axis. The bank officer gave them all to me. I still have three.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
