Wide Right New Member Canada 3 Posts	Posted 03/11/2024 9:43 pm Hello, I found this 1968 Nickel quarter in my change that appears to have the word "Elizabeth " reverse imprinted on the rim of the obverse. I have never come across anything like this and would like to know what this type of error is called and how frequently it occurs. Thank you in advance for your time and attention to my query.
