Pair of certified Washington quarter Mint errors

Lot Title:	Pair of certified Washington quarter Mint errors
Lot Number:	849
Description:	The Berry Tree Consignment. First is a 1965 SMS example, graded SP63 by PCGS, and showing significant flashy character in the fields, but it is the 10% off-center strike that escalates the value. SMS examples off-center like this are very difficult to locate. Accompanying is a 1979 quarter struck on a nickel planchet (NGC MS-65) that very nearly managed to spread the flan out to full diameter. The bottom of the digits in the date barely fall off the edge. Two coin lot.
Estimate:	$500-$600

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
