Singer Valued Member United States 309 Posts	Posted 09/30/2014 10:09 pm I found a 1970 Washington quarter that is very thin and weighs substantially less than a normal quarter. It is not due to excessive wear. I did a quick search and found on Coin Trackers that there were some 1970 quarters struck on dime stock. Is anyone familiar with this?

Singer Valued Member United States 309 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 10:31 pm Yes. It's the real deal. 1970 D, weak strike and weighed in at 4.2 g. at LCS. Report this Post to the Staff

Curious about weight if you can confirm. Quarter on dime stock 4.2g. I think this reference came from Condor101 a while back, but I've slept since then so I may be wrong. Thanks, Doug.

Jovian Valued Member United States 147 Posts	Posted 02/19/2017 12:52 am Every time I think I am getting my head around the mass of general error types I learn about another one. This is one of the reason I love this hobby. No matter how long you have been collecting or how much you know, there is always something new (or to learn) around the corner. Thanks for the info and keep it coming. Report this Post to the Staff
