    I spent a couple of days going thru the AU and MS Quarters that I have put away for about 4 yrs. I saved many. But this was fun to find for me. I got excited when I found the same die marks on two of these when I found the third.. It made my day.
    Not sure if they came out of the same register or not but they came from the same roll.
    So, here they are some 2020 Marsh Billings Rockefeller's

    What caught my eye was some brilliant die polishing lines on the reverse. 9 to 3. I flipped it over and it had the same Brilliant Polishing lines 9 to 3. Center of the coin. So I took a couple photos of each. Same aperture and settings, lighting for each set of photos.
    Here is a shot of the luster and look at the die wear.
    hopefully the photos show what I am describing.
    They are posted 123.

    In the above photos please take notice of the metal flow.
    Here is a photo of the surfaces, what is hiding under the luster of every coin. Also on the obverse you can see the heavy die lapping going down the neck.
    Continued....
