I haven't seen that many 1796 quarters but, I thought this one was interesting because of the alignment. So I thought I'd share it to get your thoughts

    This isn't a MAD, it's a rotated reverse.

    If you have a real 1796 quarter yes, it is very rare. There are loads of counterfeits out there though.
