"Error Quarter No Date". Well, it's not an error at all... Just heavy Post Strike Damage. You should know better before putting it up on ebay... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Error-Quar...AOSwruxbFXo~

Here's a great opportunity to get a below-average circulated specimen of the UK's most common coin (mintage 1,521,666,250) for only 66,600 times what it's worth!

I normally don't troll here because it's a fool's paradise game - there is ALWAYS something worse on ebay.

However, occasionally you find a new level of stupid worth calling out...

This fine individual has posted not one, but TWO body bags from NGC - INCLUDING the body bag - as Mint Errors.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/192569906112 is a lovely damaged 2005P WV Quarter
http://www.ebay.com/item/202342586485 is an equally lovely damaged 2006P CO Quarter


The bright primary color backgrounds are free...

Why do grading companies return some damaged coins in 'body bags' but encapsulate others with 'Genuine - Details' slabs?

Body bagged coins can't be graded. Sometimes, the coin will be so damaged or worn that the date cannot be ascertained. Otherwise the coin could be a fake. Sometimes it's been altered.

Generally because the submitter selected the option to not have details graded coins slabbed.
