<p>[QUOTE=&quot;No_Ragrets, post: 25030308, member: 151874&quot;]Hi again everyone! I hope you&#039;ve all been having a great weekend! I&#039;ve been looking over some of my more recent pickups (hard to take my eyes off those 2-cent pieces) but I started looking into what possible issues this 1956-D quarter has.[ATTACH=full]1601980[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601981[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601982[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601983[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601984[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601985[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601986[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601987[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601988[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1601989[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve essentially ruled out the possibility of a die gouge or crack because there would be at least a few other specimens somewhat similar to the coin I have. I can&#039;t find anything anywhere online that even comes remotely close to these images. </p><p><br /></p><p>As I was searching planchet flaws I had stumbled upon some sites that referenced (and went into a fair amount of detail about) occluded gas bubbles. I also saw information regarding ruptured gas bubbles, sometimes within the same site. Anyways, I believe this coin has both occluded and ruptured. Please feel free to correct me if I am mistaken, but I&#039;m kind of stuck at an impasse here without some outside help or assistance. </p><p><br /></p><p>For now, I&#039;ll try to describe the locations of each type in reference to the pictures I can put up, but I may take a video or add other images in the near future, especially if specifications requested regarding individual locations. </p><p><br /></p><p>1- occluded bubble(s) in a line from &quot;G&quot; in &quot;God&quot; up to &quot;B&quot; in &quot;Liberty&quot;</p><p>2- ruptured bubble above &quot;G&quot; and directly beside line of occluded line.</p><p>3- ruptured bubble located on jaw line and center of neck (looks flat and scratched, but luster flows right over it)</p><p>4- occluded bubble on neck line by Adam&#039;s apple, but I&#039;m very much on the fence about this one. The area just looks off to me, in that something isn&#039;t right about the proportions I&#039;m accustomed to seeing. </p><p><br /></p><p>By all means, please feel free to chime in and share your thoughts! I&#039;m doing my best here to figure this one out but I&#039;m just a rookie, especially when it comes to one-of-a-kind things like this![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
