Strike error on a 88 quarter?
I have a 1988 quarter that looks to be a miss-strike. on the front, the upper boarder is wider as if the quarter was further down in the die when it was struck. The other issue is the reverse. If you take any normal quarter and hold the front straight up and flip it exactly straight up to the back, the eagle is straight up but on this one the eagle is canted about 10 degrees to the left. I've had this for nearly 20 years and out of habit have checked each quarter I get since then and have never come up against another. Is this something worth hanging on to or is it more of a curiosity? Thanks for your knowledge on this subject. John

Re: Strike error on a 88 quarter?
I'm no expert ,but try comparing same coin to eBay price ? It gives you rough estimate of how much its worth ,sounds like a very interesting "error" ! Maybe local coin shop can take a look also !

Pictures please, we have to have images.
Also ebay is not a good place to look for error values unless the coin is already certified by PCGS, NGC, ICG or ANACS.
