I can't find that Zoell ever catalogued these die chips.

Nice to find but not much of a premium over melt. Good thing is you have a few of them which proves its a real chip.
Perhaps selling them together would be a better idea. Just my opinion

"but not much of a premium over melt" ----------------------------- well, an extra water line (which is not unique) on dollar increase price near twice..an extra metal on the same year penny rise price near 50 times..but unique undesqribed error on quarter means near nothing?  |

pennyman007, you did not get my point..i will start again..tell me please, why personally you are ready to pay 10 times premium on 1936 dot variety quarter and at same time are very sceptical towards to more rare ( reasonable assumption-no analogs exists) variety, and as for me, even more attractive to collector eye..and, what is more important, non of your competitors (virtual or real)do not have in possession..

I like it too dont get me wrong. I think its cool and I will keep my eye open for the same chip but on the other hand I have no control over what the markets dictate. I've had disappointing auctions as well as a few that where much better than expected, you just never know how much someone is willing to pay for something.

I agree..here is key words "markets dictate"..but aren't we (I mean collectors) a bit different from a line of burger buyers? As to me, I always use first my own judgment- common sense based on my experience against any current catalogues..

Speaking as a collector I would love to own all 3 of them. Some people are always looking for a good bargain where others dont care about the price if they want it bad enough. Nice find and good luck with them.

When making comparisons, you should really try to compare apples to apples, and not apples to oranges. I'm not saying that there isn't a market for them, but its not going to be the same as a 1936 dot. |

middross, with all my respect, I disagree /here was smiley/
Forget about dot variety, lets look at bar variety, which is definitely die chip..

You can disagree all that you like but the facts are that you were comparing two completely different things. Your disgusted emoticon was in poor taste, and if you can't take opinions that differ from your own, then you probably shouldn't ask for opinions.
Now your more recent comparison (bar variety) is more realistic, and in regards to that I wouldn't pay for one unless I got a great deal and was intending to flip it.
PS the bar variety is a die crack, not a chip.

Only the '36 has gained any attention, for other years it's just a die crack with very little or no premium. Your die chip variety will probably attract as much attention and premium as the non-'36 bar coins. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning...
