Counterfeit type B Washington Quarter die reported.

This is for the type B collectors, in case they missed it.

There is an interesting partial strike of a "B" like die on a 1964 quarter obverse (with type A reverse) discussed in this thread:

It is the second coin discussed there, so you have to keep reading. Errormaven is sure it is a counterfet die and thus a fake error.
I am quite impressed by how correct the PUP's are in the area of the arrowpoints. Leaf sticks up, no leaf arrowpoint space and no top barb.
However, the high relief seems overdone a bit. Take a look and let us know what you think.

edit: Cleaned up title for non-B collectors.

Well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery though in this case it's likely luck of the draw or
comes from a proof die or the like.

That isn't a very good fake die. The details are all fat and mushy, and there are hardly any wing feathers at all.
Typical for a fake die made by transferring details form an actual coin.

This is the best comment and explanation I have heard on this one yet.

As I just posted in the other thread, this
fake 2nd Strike Silver Quarter is from the
1968/69 era.

Both the fake quarters and Kennedy silver
Half errors have distinctive semi-proof like
surface in most (but not all) cases, strange
metal flow appearances, and most I've seen
have a "D" mintmark, when that area is visable.
