jason39305 Pillar of the Community United States 752 Posts	Posted 07/03/2026 6:29 pm I just received my mint set today. First mint sets I've ever purchased from the mint. I was excited to open it and see the fill array of 2026 coins. Right away I see this huge scratch on the Abe Lincoln Denver quarter. Then I see a small copper shard that looks like it was struck with the quarter and put in the holder. Thoughts. I kinda want to return it but if its a strike through is it worth keeping?

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19977 Posts	Posted 07/04/2026 01:52 am WOW! Double strike through! A shard of copper and a piece of steel (?) wire! Are they both raised from the surface - or is the plating missing and it's a scratch. We need better pictures please. As long as the pics aren't lying...NICE ERROR COIN! Lincoln Cent Lover!

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15575 Posts	Posted 07/04/2026 05:45 am I would say it's a struck through error. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
jason39305 Pillar of the Community United States 752 Posts	Posted 07/04/2026 11:32 am Yeah, I'm disappointed in the QC by the mint. I mean this would be a neat coin by itself but not in a mint set I want to hold together. I may return it for another one. Report this Post to the Staff
