[QUOTE="dcarr, post: 2176553, member: 4781"]It is unlikely (but not impossible) that one of my "1975" over-strike quarters could end up in circulation. The reason is that the issue price was about $40, so a person who owns one is unlikely to spend it. But to clarify, the piece that did end up in circulation was one of these (I did the graphic design for one side, but I did NOT do the concept, sculpting, engraving, minting, marketing, or selling of it): [IMG]http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTU2MVgxNjAw/z/TcIAAOSwv0tVWCX8/$_57.JPG[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTUyOVgxNjAw/z/veYAAOSweW5VWCX5/$_57.JPG[/IMG] No matter what markings you put on something, people will ignore it. The large "COPY" stamp on Washington's head did not prevent it from entering circulation.[/QUOTE]
