<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Billy Kingsley, post: 701852, member: 19456&quot;]<font face="Arial">Hi Folks, I think I have found an as-yet unreported error on the new Guam Quarter! Got this in change yesterday, and as I was looking at it closer today, I notice...there is an extra piece of metal at the top of the outline on Guam! It is a RAISED piece of metal, not an indent! Would it be a die chip or break? I&#039;m too new to errors to be able to tell. </font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">I pulled out my silver proof set to make sure it wasn&#039;t part of the design, but it&#039;s NOT on the proof! Have I made my first ever numismatic discovery? </font></p><p><font face="Arial"><img src="http://images46.fotki.com/v1442/photos/3/348354/6136805/001Copy2-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">(Note: That is not a massivly doubled die on the Proof, just a reflection on the holder)</font></p><p><font face="Arial"><img src="http://images112.fotki.com/v587/photos/3/348354/6136805/001Copy-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">This blurred a little bit but you can clearly see the extra metal here.</font></p><p><font face="Arial"><img src="http://images50.fotki.com/v1573/photos/3/348354/6136805/002Copy-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">Now, If I HAVE made a discovery: How would I go about it recognized? Would I be credited with the find? Ever since I started collecting coins and currency last year it&#039;s been my dream to make a &quot;find&quot;, I never imagined it would happen...but I think it might have now! </font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">I can take some more pictures when the sun comes up, these pictures were taken on my bed at 3 AM with the only light being the ceiling light and the flash from my camera. </font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">I&#039;m very excited, and hope others agree that I may have made a &quot;find&quot;!</font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font face="Arial">Billy </font></p><p><br /></p><p><font face="Arial">Edit: I realize this probably should have been posted in the error section...I was so excited it totally slipped my mind that it existed! Sorry about that...</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
