Description

1971-S Quarter, PR65 Red and Brown
Struck on a Cent Planchet
Clashed, Rotated Dies

1971-S 25C Washington Quarter -- On a Cent Planchet, Clashed, Rotated Dies -- PR65 Red and Brown NGC. 3.2 grams. Struck on a cent planchet, with radiant orange-gold and ruby-red color. The dies are boldly clashed, most prominently near the eagle's beak, in front of Washington's neck, and on the bridge of his nose. The reverse is rotated approximately 70 degrees from coin turn. The strike was flush against the collar die at 10 o'clock relative to the reverse, where reeding and a rim are present. The coin has an oval appearance due to outward metal flow at 1:30 and 8 o'clock, relative to the obverse. The date and UNITED sharp. The mintmark is evident though distorted. LIBERTY and STATES OF AMERICA are readable but very distorted. DOLLAR is only faintly present. The eagle and portrait are complete. The right wing is strike doubled. A remarkable triple mint error, certain to command attention at any coin show.
