I'd like to believe he was not calling you a liar in heart, but I do see where it is really - and I mean REALLY - unlikely that a 1972 quarter would be struck over a 1964. Sooooooooooooo Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73900 Posts	Posted 05/24/2018 7:51 pm Most likely a "Mint Assisted" error, but it's still very cool. It would be something that I would love to own, but I wouldn't be able to afford it. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

NewMember Valued Member United States 274 Posts	Posted 05/25/2018 3:35 pm It wasn't lined up well in the die press but if it had been I guess the original date wouldn't have been as obvious. I'm sure it was lined up just right. Technically real or technically counterfeit, either way it's nice to look at. Edited by NewMember 05/25/2018 3:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 05/25/2018 4:21 pm Ah, folks, get a grip...intentional mint assisted erroR: Our Canuck friends really get off on these things... Quote: PART XI: Enhanced Error: Intentional and Assisted Mint Made Errors Definition: An assisted error is one that had a helping hand from inside the Mint. The assist could occur at any stage in the minting process and may simply involve the intentional release or smuggling-out of an accidental error. A subcategory is the "intentional error" which is a coin both intentionally fabricated and smuggled out. It is also possible for a mint employee to intentionally create an error as a lark, with the coin leaving in a shipment of ordinary coins. This 1977 Canadian nickel was struck with 1978 cent dies. Almost all coins featuring a design struck on a larger coin or planchet are intentional, since the oversized disc cannot be accommodated by the feeder tube, feeder finger, or collar. The year 1978 was a peak year for the production of intentional errors by the Royal Canadian Mint. 1982 Panama Half Balboa-Struck over a 1978 Kennedy half dollar 50C. Many details of the Kennedy half dollar host remain visible, including the complete outline of Kennedy's bust which is fortuitously aligned with the profile of world explorer Balboa. The peripheral legends on the reverse of the Half Dollar are also visible. The 1982 Half Balboa (KM-12b) had a mintage of 400,000 pieces and was struck at the U.S. Mint, as were most Panamanian coins through 1982. This assumed unique error combination was presumably a product of mint employee mischief, although a visitor at the mint or a supplier of planchets could also be the culprit. http://www.error-ref.com/?s=mint+assisted+errors Edited by Crazyb0 05/25/2018 4:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 05/26/2018 6:43 pm A fantastic conclusion to perhaps the most controversial CCF topic of all time! Awesome! Now, the true question becomes, if eel decides to auction it, how much does everyone think it would bring? A 1983 stuck on an amusement token brought over $15,000 in 2014 on heritage, but a Quarter/Sac mule brought in $192,000 at stacks this year. It has to be somewhere between those two figures I would think lol Report this Post to the Staff
