#1 on the overs you have a small chip off the left side of the initials. ##2 here is another one with a small chip just to the left of the initials. #3 this one is a slightly bigger chip with a wiggly crack tail to the left of the initials.
die chips? I don't know if those are really considered "errors", maybe "minor errors" ==> http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/ErrorOrVarietyStatesCoins.htm
THe bottom of the bust is normal to find die cracks and small die chips. Not much of an anomaly but a good reference to what happens to the quarter dies during the striking process.
Reverse errors found on the reverse you will find a variety of die cracks- chips usually can be found in the tree branches anywhere from one small chip. To a variety of different size chips they also can be found on the tree branch these will vary in sizes to
Because of the intricate details of many of the newer quarter series' they are very prone to those minor die chips. It is very common to find them in many of the series and don't really have much of a value at this time since they are so easy for everyone to find. Unless you get a more famous one like the spitting horse or extra leafs. They make it more interesting and keep me looking though.
This one is known as the no bark. This is due to an excessive use of the die, it is starting to lose some of its detail marks as you can see by the missing tree bark
Just received this Annealing error it is my understanding that an error like this occurs because of improper heating or cooling during the Manning process. As you can see on the overs the damage that occurs. Notice the doubling in God we trust, this also shows metal fatigue now on the reverse the only problem I can see is in the big rock..
An annealing error happens to the complete surface of a coin, Look up Black Beauty Nickel. That is either corrosion or toning.
Thank you for your opinion. Personally I have to rely on the individuals that I have relied on for decades, for advice on error coins. Personally I would like to hear what Mike Dimond has to say, since he wrote on article on this type of error and also received confirmation from the mint these do exist. I have also been informed that this particular coin came directly from the mint
Like @Pickin and Grinin has said, your coin in post #10 is not an annealing error. I recommend you search through the Coin Talk Archives for information. There have been some excellent posts from a number of experienced collectors of error coins on the diagnostics of improperly annealed coins, along with pics of slabbed coins with this error. When you do this, it will be apparent that you don't have one
