    Wondering if anyone else has found an error like this one. I have been searching for awhile and all I have found is the normal double cactus and extra cactus leaf. Guessing it's a die break but havent seen one listed anywhere like it. Almost looks like a flower on the cactus. Dont know if this is rare or not. 20190503_082223.jpg

    It's interesting, but I don't think there would be a premium for it. Unless you come up with a flashy name to market it by :p

    Not rare.. Die Chips appear on coins in different areas. It's due to a worn die.

    Looks like a birds nest in the cactus

    Actually, I think I've got the answer. It could be a bobcat that climbed up the cactus, so call it the Climbing Bobcat variety. Yeah, that's the ticket!

    Definitely a die chip. Not added premium.

    Oddly enough Meow actually has a section in the cat hoard dedicated to all the different Arizona die break quarters Meow has found. Meow has posted a few pics of them before. Meow has found that the Arizona quarters have the most die breaks in all of modern coinage. Well, at least a far as Meow knows.

    Meow likes this pic the best. It describes how Meow feels towards people that hate Cats.

    Meow has found quite a few with a chip in that location. But none a large as that one. Meow would be pleased as punch to add that to the Cat hoard.
