SherylZ22 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I've got a 2005 California State Quarter that has been stamped too deep and it has a raised rim on one side and you can see the copper all along the outside of it. I looked this year coin up for errors and this type is not listed anywhere. Is this recognized as an error or is it just a piece of junk?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coinbuf Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If you can post some clear in focus cropped photos we can help you out, too difficult to try and figure out from your description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenHolcomb Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 @SherylZ22 coinbuf has a most valid point. We generally don't give a post much time without photos of at least both sides and preferably close ups of the questioned area. That said I am responding because I THINK I know what you are talking about because I am sure to have sorted 1000's of State and Park Quarters and seen it 10p's of times, and it is called Collar Clash. It is quite common with the Quarter and the more you look at the more you'll see it. And so there is no extra value there. Most times it doesn't span the entire Rim and you will likely see more of the Copper color in that area of the Rim. BUT...without seeing your coin I really cant say for sure if that us what is going on or not. https://www.coinworld.com/news/precious-metals/_double-rims_-and-false-rims-arise-in-many-circumstances.html Modwriter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarenHolcomb Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 @VKurtB Yes Sir, I thought finning too, but I had all mine labeled as Collar Clash right up until I spent them all. Lol! Hard times. It could be either and neither error adds value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
