t5j6p9 New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 07/14/2008 8:35 pm Upon further research, it appears pyrbob's die is NOT 1968. I say this because 1968 dies have no taper in the shank, while your die does. These are 1968 s dies: http://koinpro.tripod.com/Error_Coi...CentDies.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

Sorry, no pictures." I believe I sold you that die. I still have a Tennessee quarter and a Massachusetts quarter die / coin set, if your interested. Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 07/17/2008 10:47 pm I went on vacation and forgot all about this post I have some pics of my Colorado die now, with a true "first strike" quarter next to it(the quarter included with the die is one of the first produced with that particular die). This is a reverse die and it is the state side of a quarter- note that all detail has been completely removed. One part has an alphanumeric code and the opposite side has a dot matrix code. There is also a flat notch on the shank of the die for proper positioning in the press. Report this Post to the Staff
t5j6p9 New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 07/18/2008 1:40 pm Yesterday, my P New Mexico die came. Will post pics when I have them. It appears the mint has changed their defacing again, though. This die appears to have had the face lathed off. Report this Post to the Staff
