Bill Kerr Valued Member United States 421 Posts	Posted 07/23/2023 12:31 pm Guys, I am aware of what is the "SOP" for normally listing of coins, but I have a question concerning multiply coins of this particular coin. I am cherry picking boxes of quarters and I keep coming across different coins with various of issues in basically the same area. Question what is the issue here? Thanks.

Dave42 Pillar of the Community United States 571 Posts	Posted 07/23/2023 12:56 pm Look like die chips to me. Those letters are incuse on the coin, so those letters on the die itself would be raised. Since the letters are quite thin, after a while it makes sense that they would get worn and chip away. This would then leave a raised area in the otherwise incuse letters, which I beleive is what is happening on the coins you have. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94728 Posts	Posted 07/23/2023 1:03 pm agreed die chips on incuse devices bring the letters back to be level with the fields. It would seen though, that this is a weak spot on the dies that they keep chipping in this area. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Dutch-Tigger Valued Member United States 301 Posts	Posted 07/23/2023 1:32 pm I have been for some time talking about the coins now having more intricate/busy Designs on them and for the Dies the metallurgical boundaries of strength are greatly diminished when you have Peaks and Valleys- Incuse/Cavities so close to one another, the more the Dies wear the weaker these features become. So now we see the Common Die chips and cracks accruing in the Common area`s. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73628 Posts	Posted 07/23/2023 2:06 pm I agree. Die Chips seem to be a common occurrence on these Quarters. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
