[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1459802, member: 15929"]Again, it does not really matter since the coin is: 1. Obviously different 2. Easily identifiable 3. Consistently reproduced (meaning the die(s) were modified) 4. An official US Mint product. Whether or not the damage was intentional or not is irrelevent. It's a recognized and collectible variety for the Wisconsin State Quarters. Folks that have certain "axes to grind" with regard to this variety have their own personally justifiable reasons for being spoil sports for those that either have the varieties and/or would like one of the varieties. Are prices down? Absolutely! But only because the coin is no longer in the spotlight. Have folks lost money on them? Absolutely but the same is true for ANY modern era coins! The Moderns coin market is very finicky and can be extremely short, in relative timelines, with only a very few exceptions that will hold any type of values. I've got quite a few moderns that fall into the "what was I thinking?" category but you'll not catch me dissing them since, if we're still around in a 100 years, they just might be highly collectible.
