What is it again?...condition, rarity, market demand...it seems that these quarters have these going for them. It sure is getting a ton of press...matter of fact, I had 3 family members contact me out of the blue to talk: Wisconsin quarters! They knew I collected coins, but called me to discuss "leaves"!?!

Well...if these 3 called me...there is hype out there! It will be interesting to see where they end up next year. I just hope that I am lucky enough to find one. I'll hold on to it and see what the market bears next year.

You have to admit, not since 1995 with the Lincoln DDO which needs a magnifier to see has a specific coin caused so much uproar.

It now appears these coins may have been made from intentionally damaged dies? In any case they are NOT errors issued by the mint but a result of the dies being carelessly handled or intentionally damaged. And, after visiting the Denver mint and seeing how many thousands of coins can be struck every minute I would think there are far more than we can imagine floating around out there. And, even if there isn't, why would anyone want to pay a tremendous premium for this quarter? I am sorry but I just don't see the big deal? It is not like they misspelled something or created a double die?

Somewhere out there P.T. Barnum is laughing his you-know-what off over all of this.... [:0]
