will pcgs designate my error?

rd5425

I have a 2000-s silver massachusetts quarter with a die crack on it, better known as the "pissing minuteman" quarter, right now it is at pcgs and Im wondering weather pcgs will designate on the holder that it is a mint error or not. Thanks

Nope. I see die cracks all the time that are not designated.

Since KingParasite moved/was booted across the street....I had almost forgotten about the famous rare pissing Minuteman....

Well, unless you requested "error service" or "variety attribution" (of course a PCGS recognized variety) for which you paid for, they probably won't.

As for die cracks being attributed, it would have to be a PCGS recognized variety.

Has anyone/everyone read or seen the 2000-S Kennedy with the "dramatic" die crack from the top of the head to the rim? Now that is an anomaly that is attracting the attention of some of the error guys; just ain't s'posed to happen, particularly on a proof.

Hey Gilbert! Are you talking about the 2002-S Silver Kennedy die crack that was in this week's Coin World? That IS dramatic. I dropped the paper and went through all 3 of my 2002 silver proof sets. Maybe I returned one to the Mint due to their shoddy workmanship?

You mentioned PCGS "designated varieties". I'm still trying to get an answer if they recognize and designate the Wexler varieties on the Jeff nickles. Do you know if they do?

TIA,

Bob
