So what the heck causes the discoloration?</p><p>#2 - For the second pics - what is the striation error called? Isn't it when the coin is moved off the die?</p><p>#3 - Are these "errors" and do either of these add any value to a new quarter?</p><p>Thanks in advance for your help!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1294756[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1294757[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1294758[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

First 2 pics are comparison of the off-color Qs versus the regular shiny Q. The second pic shows another Q with striations next to a normal Q.
