*** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

I recently had a bunch of error quarters given to me. I didn't realize there was such a market for them. Just wondering what type of errors are sought after most. Also would like some information on this 2023 D mint quarter w/ Eleanor Roosevelt. Any tips on taking proper pics?

to the CCF, kimimina1976! Be cautious with error coins - true errors are quite rare. Most of what you see on ebay, etc. are just damaged coins or simply not an error.
Most people here use some variation of Earle42's method, which works quite well: A Phone, A Light, Some Books, And A Bottle Cap For Good Coin Pictures

To CCF! Pictures aren't great. I'm not really seeing anything that would be an error.
