    That happened at thee mint? Looks like someone put a lead pipe over the rims and bashed away...

    Neat! Looks less like a coin and more like an engraved serving plate.

    Nice elliptical clip error, ErrorsOnCoins. Beautiful photography as always.

    Sweet! Do we get to see the other side?

    Cool! I don't think I have seen a newer error coin with one of the commemorative quarter designs being struck on the wrong planchet before.

    It is not quite round or is it? Interesting error! B)

    What is the error? Nickel planchet?

    From the title of the post I initially thought it may be a state parks quarter struck over a struck (Franklin) Roosevelt dime. Oops! Didn't realize it was ol' Theo.

    Struck on an elliptical clip as previously mentioned. Wonder how many of these will end up on the market - quite a few of this particular design have sold. Though, this one is particularly interesting.

    I bet a complete set of national parks quarters struck on elliptical clips could be made, and would assume a couple people have already.

    Very rare, Struck on a 4.3 Gram 24% (by weight) elliptical clip.

    That quarter horse is moving at an elliptical clip!

    Agree. It is possible to build a 2016 or 2017 year set. I myself picked up one on 2017 Effigy Mounds (just as an example, no intention to build set though). They surely are very rare.
