allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 06/04/2023 5:13 pm I found a 1999 P Delaware State Quarter with an unusual issue. It appears there was a reeding problem because you can see Reed Marks on the top half of the obverse on the rim. It runs about 140 degrees between two rim marks! The coin has a golden tone but weigh's 5.6 grams. I took several pics including the rim at the top of Washington's head to show the reed which looks normal. Tak a look and let me know your thoughts and regards! Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96674 Posts	Posted 06/04/2023 5:21 pm It is not a 'reeding issue' the reeds are normal, but what you have here is a 'collar clash' and it is a nice one too.

allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 06/04/2023 5:57 pm I looked it up, the hammer Die has the clash marks which are transferred to the coin during the minting process. So to stop the clash marks do you replace the hammer Die? Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 06/04/2023 6:13 pm Every coin that was minted with that die would have it. So yes you would replace the die. But this would not be a reason to replace the die, they would just keep running with it. Report this Post to the Staff
