<p>[QUOTE="Ana Silverbell, post: 2433268, member: 75156"]I purchased a raw, 1964-D quarter at a coin shop for a few bucks. What made this coin unique was that it was struck through cloth. The coin was interesting enough to me to have it slabbed. (See pics.) The weave pattern of the cloth is well-defined. Apparently, this type of error is usually caused when a mint employee cleaning a die with a cloth inadvertently lets a piece of cloth remain in the press so that it gets between the planchet and the die: the cloth is pressed onto the coin, causing the weave pattern. Anyway, I thought it would be interesting to have others post their struck-through-cloth, U.S., coins. I would like to see who has the earliest date. (It won't be me.)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]505839[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]505840[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]505841[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]505842[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
