I second that,I wish I could scan mine.There's got to be some board members that can show us something.

I have a few quarter errors loaded on the CU server so they're easiest to post. Funny thing, they are all dated 1997.

Got to start out with a poptop to get the idea of perfection:

PCGS MS-67 None Graded Higher:

Clip, properly called incomplete planchet, this one has 3 clips and this has 1 large clip:

Off center:

Quarter on nickel planchet:

Missing clad layer:

Awesome errors Dog! Thanks for showing them.

Loved the off center and the wrong planchet errors.

If you like wrong planchets you should like this.
Lincoln struck on a dime planchet:

Or how about a cent struck on an actual DIME?
A true double dated double denomination coin.
The copper particles from the die gives this a light copper color & interesting peripheral tone.

Those are some neat errors, Dog.

Well, I posted this recently, but will post it again:

This is one of Nuckelhead's. A triple clip cent.

This one is an offset Jefferson similar to another Nuck has.

If he can't post them, I will.

Multiple clip cents are a good thing to have.

Old Nucklehead talked me out of that triple clip and at the last coin show I found two of the offset Jeffs. $2 each. So I got one for me and gave the other to Nuck. Couldn't beat the price.
