I want to know if any of these quarters have errors, and if so are they worth anything.  The first one is more obvious. I want to know what kind of error is this.  This one I want to know why there's a ring goind around the head.  Same with the 1970 coin. Why is there a ring around the head.    This last one, the mint mark is odd. Like it was scratched into the coin. Edited by Goodroe12 08/15/2016 2:54 pm

The first one is counting/rolling machine as Fioti stated. The ring is the bottom of Abe's ear lobe. I believe.

That's not what I meant. Around the center there's a ring that goes around the head. I haven't really seen that in quarters

 This is a great site to learn from. I know (from my experience) there will be disappointments along the way but that is how I learned about coin varieties and errors and gained my appreciation for the coin hobby.
