Do you happen to have pictures of the other 2 to post? How many have been reported for each of them?

I have unopened rolls from this series..... Maybe I should go open them

On the December quarter you provided a link to, I only see a curved crease but no transferred design elements. My ability to read French has deteriorated due to disuse, so perhaps there may be more information about said elements in the description.

Yeah it's difficult to take a nice picture of it. I'll try tomorrow to take a good one and I'll post it here. In hand though, you can see some elements of the design transfered.

Wonderful. The illustrations seem to be depicting four different counterclashes among these December 1999 quarters. Is that correct? Or is it that there are four different counterclashes affecting the same die?

Hi Sir Mike Diamond

Your question:

The illustrations seem to be depicting four different counterclashes among these December 1999 quarters. Is that correct? Or is it that there are four different counterclashes affecting the same die?



I made the study of these brands and they are all on the same coin and affecting de same working die.

Wow. If you could loan me a specimen, I'd like to write it up for Coin World. Also, has this counterclash been written up elsewhere?
