<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NewCollectorRick, post: 2644428, member: 84576&quot;]Hello all. I am newish to cointalk but have not had much time to do any hunting lately but did come across these 2 coins today. Not sure if they are anything special but still curious about a few things.&nbsp; Any help would be awesome.&nbsp; </p><p>1. The 1996 p Mercury Dime with the discoloring. Is this what I have seen people call a rainbow? If so what causes it and is it worth holding on to or nothing special. I have also been keeping my eye out for ft and fb dimes.&nbsp; Is this a full torch or full band? The torch looks pretty solid if I am looking at the correct lines they are referring to.&nbsp; &nbsp; [ATTACH=full]583942[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583943[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583944[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Ok and next I found a quarter which is a 2000-D Virginia.&nbsp; </p><p>The coin was almost put in the wrong pile because I thought the damage was from someone or something after it left the mint but after looking at it I can see it looks to be damage from the mint. In one of the craters you can see a lines or lettering on top of the damage. </p><p>1. What type of error would this be called ? </p><p>2.&nbsp; Is it anything special or just a common damaged coin? Any help is always greatly appreciated.[ATTACH=full]583948[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583951[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583949[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583953[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583952[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]583951[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Oh and I did find my first silver quarter in a bank roll today. A 1951.&nbsp; Horrible condition but still good find in my book.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]583946[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course I have many others that I have looked up but can&#039;t figure them all out so they will be posted shortly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
