Errorcoins Member United States 703 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 9:25 pm 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. errrror Report this Post to the Staff

kenny_1745 Valued Member United States 239 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 9:34 pm It was probably found in a roll of all P mint coins Report this Post to the Staff
Errorcoins Member United States 703 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 9:37 pm gxseries funny man kenny wouldn't fit in a roll, perhaps a mint bag, but they (PCGS) would have to BELIEVE the submitter errror Report this Post to the Staff
GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 9:38 pm It would have had to been from a bag as it wouldn't fit in a roll me thinks. Report this Post to the Staff
gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 9:48 pm No, what I meant was that the submitter submitted both the 95% and 5% offstruck pieces together and for some reason, they got seperated.

kenny_1745 Valued Member United States 239 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 9:57 pm 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 Report this Post to the Staff
Errorcoins Member United States 703 Posts	Posted 07/20/2007 11:11 pm 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. errrorr Edited by Errorcoins 07/20/2007 11:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 07/21/2007 10:02 am Since when did PCGS need proof to declare something as true? Report this Post to the Staff
Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 07/21/2007 10:13 am Come on guys, this one is easy. There is no mint mark, anywhere, so it has to be P. Jim Report this Post to the Staff
Stone New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 07/22/2007 10:17 am Probably from the reverse diagnostics or it came directly from a bag when sent to PCGS for slabbing. Neat error. Report this Post to the Staff
