I'm just thinking out loud, maybe because the other off center MD's only came from the P mint and not the D mint. I have no idea if this is true, but I do not remember any off center D mint MD quarters.

It was probably found in a roll of all P mint coins

kenny wouldn't fit in a roll, perhaps a mint bag, but they (PCGS) would have to BELIEVE the submitter

No, what I meant was that the submitter submitted both the 95% and 5% offstruck pieces together and for some reason, they got seperated.

Yeah, I don't think PCGS would believe but I think it is the only possible way for them to know what mint it came from

gxseries, no that is not it. if so it would be a matched set and worth tons more as a pair plus PCGS would label it as such.

kenny, unless there are NO D MD mint off centers and a bunch of P MD mint ones, that would be the only way short of opening a bag of P MD quarters in the PCGS office and finding this one.

Since when did PCGS need proof to declare something as true?

Come on guys, this one is easy. There is no mint mark, anywhere, so it has to be P.

Probably from the reverse diagnostics or it came directly from a bag when sent to PCGS for slabbing.

Neat error.

Easier than you think. It was just submitted by the People at the P Mint. Possibly submitted by the Mint Error Secret Service otherwise none as MESS. You didn't actually think that error coins were accidents now did you?
