I search pocket change and CRH. I came across an error/variety about 15 years ago, in pocket change, and has been driving me nuts trying to find information on what it is since. I was hoping someone could help in identifying. I recently purchased a Mustcam digital microscope and have now the best picture of this coin to date (for me). I have asked in the past but could not get a very good picture to verify. The coin is a 1976 Quarter very high grade coin, mirror to frosty like finish, except for a few small marks it looks to be in perfect condition. It looks to me as a s over inverted s, but I'm not sure.
I found this website: (not sure if this is 100% confirmed)

Any help (confirmation,value, information, etc) would be much appreciated
Thanks

When you check what is the normal mint mark shapes for certain years on variety Vista here is what I found:

Drop down to the MMS-009. This must have been an issue at that time with the punch.
(check this link) you will see that it is the same issue on a cent.
(proof coins were "S" mint that year)
So we probably don't see that many in circulation.
