New Florida State Quarter Error

BaltimoreCoinConv

Just found one of the new Florida State Quarters that appears to be struck through grease on the reverse. Pretty large area between the Shuttle, Ship and Palm Trees.

I think he was joking about the absence of objects portrayed on the Florida state quarter.

No sir, this is a real error and not due to lack of design. But I do understand what you are saying. heh. Ed Kuszmar

Have now found a half dozen of the new Florida Quarters that appear to be struck through grease, all of which are similiar but all of which are not quite the same. These all came from an original box that just came in. May find more as I continue opening up rolls. Ed

Didn't have much luck last night trying to get a good image from my digital camera. Hopefully this scanned image will come through clear enough. Ed Kuszmar

Some of the new Florida Quarter Errors have shown up in the Clearwater, Florida area too. Looks like these came out of some
of the first boxes that were released. I am pretty convinced that
these were struck with a greasy die, and I've now seen a couple
of them with just small spots and others that almost fill the entire
area between the Shuttle (when did the Shuttle get windows?),
the Ship and the Palm Trees. Going to be interesting trying to put
a "progression" set of these together. A glob of grease will most
likely move around on the die as it is being used, and the heat
from striking has to make it pretty liquid. So each error will be a little different. Really neat errors.
