<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rascal, post: 4268335, member: 29239&quot;]They are from the same die and were most likely found in the same roll or box of new coins from the mint. If you do a lot of roll searching like I used to do of new coins it is quite easy to find coins from the same die because the way the coins go into the same bin as they are being made they usually get put in rolls together.What happened here was some mint grease got mixed with all kinds of debris on the die and hardened. It stayed on the die and kept striking coins until it wore off or finally come loose. I have two of the most awesome Minnesota state quarter coins here somewhere that are identical and looks like a bomb exploded in the trees ,&nbsp; there are numerous round sunken in areas going up the reverse of the coins. And on the obverse Washington&#039;s head has a sunken in round area on each of them . I found them in the rolls the extra tree coins come from .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
