[QUOTE="StevenHarden, post: 4286267, member: 67639"][USER=59737]@Seattlite86[/USER] Thank you for your information and comments. The diameters of the coins are as follows: #46 - Uniform diameter of about 30.6mm #47 - Nonuniform diameter with widest at about 33.3mm #48 - Even more nonuniform diameter with widest at about 34.8mm I agree about #48 being a broadstrike. As others have said, a loose/damaged collar could have led to the reeding of the broadstruck #47. I have some additional images below that show the rim of #47 in more detail. In one of those pictures I have it shown beside a BU 1992P 50c. Notice the "line" that seems to run along the center of the reeding. Also, there does not appear to be any part of the edge that is missing reeding, it appears complete. As for #46, I am also leaning more toward PMD. I have other coins, statehood quarters to be specific, that I am pretty sure are die adjustment strikes (will post those in a later thread). As you mentioned, the polishing and unusual nature of this piece seems to be an imitation of an error, but I'm just not sure. When testing the metal, I show this is indeed copper-nickel clad. The weight is 11.3 grams and the diameter is 30.6mm. As for [USER=92083]@JCro57[/USER], we have been in touch by PM and have discussed a few items as well. If you have any questions, please let me know. Here are those detailed pictures for Error #47: [ATTACH=full]1090940[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1090941[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1090942[/ATTACH] Thank You.[/QUOTE]
