Hey everyone, I may have nothing here, could be over polishing? I found it odd anyway. I have this 1998 D quarter and noticed it had a bunch of feathers between the leg. I have never found a quarter with all of these tail feathers. Even looking through PCGS photos for that year they did not have visible feathers like this.
Here is the normal proof design. The normal design on the dies can be weaken with more an more continued use. So if weakened, it is not a mint error. Just a die event.
