Ok the correct answers were #1 Arizona state quarter. #2 Die chips were the cause of the two having an issue or error what ever you prefer to call it. Many said cud a cud is found on a rim of the coin no where else. Many said die crack a die crack is a die that has split or cracked and transferred that image onto the coin. #3 the missing 3 initials JFM. Now when these coin were released in 2008 the die chip was called or referred to as an extra cactus leaf. There were several more issues with this coin a smooth die chip in the bottom of the 8 in 2008 , as well as candel stick wicks on some of the tall cactus. Posted below are the images of the normal coins as well as the coins with die chips. I hope everyone enjoyed this contest as much as I have holding it. Maybe I'll do another one soon. Winners I have your information and will work on getting these out asap. Thanks Just one other request Please post in this thread when you have received your prize.Paddy
Here's a picture of the 2008 with the smooth die chip inside the bottom of the 8, notice how half of the lower loop of the 8 looks filled. Also notice the glob of medal on the second 0 above the date.

Rusty am EST. Better go check the trap I hear skunks are only second to rabbits! For those wondering as inquiring minds like to know....Rusty is raising skunks to pay for his coin habits . So far what 8 Rusty? They cost $75. Ea. And the herd lives under his porch . I'm sure he'll be posting photos of the spring round up where he herds them up and put the circle R brand on their little who ha's. BTW In the photo Rusty will be the one in the bio hazard suit as he's had two sprayers .
