[QUOTE="robec, post: 3601926, member: 19094"]I submitted a group of Washington quarters for a friend last year, one of which didn't grade due to wheel marks. I wasn't aware this was a thing, at least a thing that would keep a coin from being graded. Would this, could this be graded as an error? It was part of the minting process. I didn't really know what they were suppose to look like until I posted the quarter on one of the message boards asking for help in identifying what and where the wheel mark(s) was. You can see the lines running from the breast to the eagles right wing. Also on the neck and in the field to the left of UNUM into the top tip of the eagle's right wing. Click on the images to make larger. [IMG]http://www.robecsimages.com/photos/Jon/jon_1946dWash_RawRev_03.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.robecsimages.com/photos/Jon/jon_1946dWash_Wheel.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
