Lucky Gnome Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 11/08/2019 05:34 am Hi all, Found this Washington quarter in pocket change! I see, (marked in red) 3 die cracks, die chip on leaf and letters filled in on "WISDOM"... What is the proper term for that error? (Wisdom) In addition,the obverse looks like it might be a die clash? I'm Curious. Is this common for this year & State? I couldn't find another match for reference. Thanks for your input! Report this Post to the Staff

The incuse letters on the die broke off as the coins were struck. I don't see any die clash, but I did an overlay of the Georgia State Quarter. You can check your coin against this image to look for clash marks. http://www.error-ref.com/?s=die+chips ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T!

Lucky Gnome Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 11/08/2019 11:55 pm Hi, thanks for your info!!! So, are you saying these are, "die chips"? Also, is this a common error for these Ga. Washington's? Any idea of worth? Report this Post to the Staff

Lucky Gnome Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 11/16/2019 5:42 pm Hey Coop, I recently found a New Hampshire quarter exactly like your photo! However, back to "Ga". The reason I inquired about the said Die Chips as a, " Cud" is, there's a video on the net that identifies those as, "die chips & Cuds"....(?) Don't misunderstand me, I'm just looking for more information on this. Also, in comparison to the die chips in your pic verses Ga. Coin. Some of the metal balls on the GA. coin look like rolled balls of metal that got stuck when cooled. Where as, none of the die chips in your photos have that separated round ball appearance. Example, The "W" on Ga. Coin & in your photos looks like "Die Chips". On the Ga. coin, the S, D & O look like " Cuds". Is that a Possibility? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/17/2019 06:51 am Visualize a die. All the raised devices are incuse on the die. (Deep into the die) Incuse devices on a coin, are raised on a die. But on your coin, the area your seeing affected is raised with incuse devices on a raised area. So one the die, the raised area on the coin is set into the die, but the incuse devices are raised on the die, that is lowered area of the die. So when parts of these raised devices are chipped of, then the chip is shown as a raised area in the void. Chips are not cuss. Cuds affect the outside of the die. That area breaks off deep on the side of the die. Report this Post to the Staff
