New states quarter variety?

There's a great discussion developing Across the street.

This is apparently an extra tree on a Minnesota quarter caused by tilted die doubling. This should
prove popular if accepted and should be available in much larger quantities than the last one.

    Crap - I should have bought them a month ago when it was brought up here: Minnesota Extra Tree Thread

    I'm sure the prices will go crazy now.

    Here's the article they referenced:

    After discovering SPIKED CHIN (die crack) oregon quarters and 2005 D Bald bison nickels (about a roll of each of the aforementioned).... I'm inclined to think this may be another anamoly which turns out to be less than the hype that builds it up.

    I hope it grows into a big tree image

    It looks like it will at least be the heart of a tree if not the whole thing.

    It's a convincing argument and now the race is on to find them. There will be a lot of XF's with this
    one and possibly even fewer uncs than with the WI varieties.
