one time I went to the Denver mint and got some uncirculated State Quarters out of the machine for 25 cents each (I can tell you where the machine is if you are visiting!). Anyhow, I got half a dozen quarters that were 'struck through debris', and saw how the struck through was slightly different on each coin, like the debris was moving on the die with each coin struck. The two in this picture remind me of the ones I saw.

I found only two in my roll. The rest from the same die pair were normal. So the die either got wiped off, or the rest were from before the event happened to get the grease/debris on the die.

1000_Rubles,
I would put it in a 2x2 and label it.

So then the same thing probably happened to these ATB Quarters, because even though I don't remember having a roll of them the rest of the quarters I have in my tube are all gem uncirculated like these are, just without any damage of course.

Yeah that's a good idea, thank you! I've never been much of an error coin collector but I just love how I can make new discoveries of things I never noticed in my own collection!
