Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7510 Posts	Posted 12/03/2018 4:09 pm There are noticeable differences on these Two 1968 Proof Quarters. Both from mint proof sets.The most noticeable areas are the Tail feathers details, Olive leaf above the U , above the A, the both ends of the arrows, back of the Eagle's head.Any ideas?

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/03/2018 10:05 pm Did you catch a point on the RDV-005? Quote: Comments: Rare, perhaps 1% of mintage. Also on the RDV-006: Quote: Comments: Scarce, perhaps 3% of mintage. Also two more. RDV-007 Quote: Comments: Comprises about 75% of mintage. http://www.varietyvista.com/09b%20W...8SRDV007.htm RDV-008: Quote: Comments: Comprises about 25% of mintage. http://www.varietyvista.com/09b%20W...8SRDV008.htm So there are 4 different ones. I missed that the first time. When adding up the two first ones, it only added up a small percentage of them. Look deeper and found the other 2. Learn something new all the time.
