2023 D Quarter Error list

Here is a list of common errors found in 2023 D quarters, particularly from the American Women Quarters series, which includes designs such as Bessie Coleman and Jovita Idar. These errors can increase the value of the quarters depending on their rarity and condition.

2023 D Quarter Error list

1. Die Crack Error

  • Found on the 2023-P Bessie Coleman quarters.
  • Typically located near the airplane on the reverse side, sometimes accompanied by doubling on the inscriptions.

2. Double Reverse Error

  • A specific error in which both sides of the coin show elements of the reverse design, making the coin highly valuable.

3. Struck Through Error

  • On the 2023 D Jovita Idar quarters, this error appears when foreign materials obstruct the die, causing weak or missing details on the coin’s surface.

4. Off-Center Strike

  • The quarter may have been struck off-center, leading to an incomplete design. This is a common mint error that can increase a coin’s value significantly.

5. Clipped Planchet

  • Occurs when a portion of the coin’s edge is missing due to the metal sheet being misaligned during production.

6. Die Clash Error

  • Found on some 2023 D quarters, this error happens when dies strike each other without a planchet in between, causing an imprint of the die design on both sides of the coin.

7. Grease Filled Die

  • A grease-filled die can cause parts of the design to appear faint or missing, commonly seen in the inscriptions or fine details on the coin.

8. Broad Strike

  • Occurs when a coin is struck outside the retaining collar, causing the coin to be broader than normal with distorted edges.

9. Doubling (Doubled Die)

  • A doubling error can be observed in the inscriptions or features on the coin, particularly in the “E PLURIBUS UNUM” motto or other textual elements.

10. Multiple Strike Error

  • Found on some 2023 quarters, this happens when the coin is struck more than once, leading to overlapping or blurred designs.

11. Cud Error

  • A cud error appears as a raised, unstruck area on the coin, usually along the edge, caused by a piece of the die breaking off.

12. Planchet Crack

  • Visible cracks in the metal, often seen on the surface or edge of the coin, which occur during the minting process.

13. Partial Collar Strike

  • Part of the quarter may be improperly struck, resulting in a partially raised or flattened rim.

14. Wavy Steps Error

  • An error affecting the steps on the reverse design (if present), resulting in an uneven or “wavy” appearance.

15. Die Chip Error

  • Small chips of metal may appear in areas of the design, especially around letters or other intricate parts of the coin.

16. Brockage Error

  • This occurs when a coin is struck while another coin remains stuck in the die, resulting in an incuse or mirror image of one side of the coin.

17. Rotated Die Error

  • The design on one side of the coin is rotated out of alignment with the design on the other side.

18. Weak Strike

  • A coin that shows incomplete or faint design details due to insufficient pressure during the strike.

19. Edge Lettering Error

  • On quarters where edge lettering is included, the letters may appear incomplete or misshapen.

20. Missing Clad Layer

  • The coin is missing the outer clad layer, exposing the copper core, which significantly increases its rarity and value.
