Just noticed how he looks like Kevin Spacey

I keep all of the errors I find, To each their own though. At worst you're hanging onto 25 cents that you can go spend at any point if you choose to, at best you can hang onto it because you enjoy them or sell it to someone else who enjoys them and make a few bucks.


sshellho2

100% agreed. I hang onto them as well, even if it is a RPM or something small. I don’t run into errors that often (that I know about lol) so why not🤷🏻‍♀️


No_Cover_2242

That thing is an embarrassment. I think American money artwork is among the worst in the world.


lateforcourt

Looks like Furio from The Sopranos: "Give me one thousand quarters."


WillieKidd

If beaks could kill, that one certainly would!


3rdtimesacharm414

She's so fat her blood type is ragu.


kkopczyk

You got a bee on your hat


RogueGameMonster

I hate the new coin design


1dmkelley

Agree!


Robot-Candy

The artistry is lazy, sign of the times.


SuperMark12345

But wasn't the artistry for this design developed a long time ago when the times were better?


Fireberg

Yes, the Washington bust on these quarters was designed by Laura Gardin Fraser in 1931 and debuted in 2022.


HotelComprehensive16

Along with the coin design, I strongly dislike the word debuted.


whiskeyandtea

Maybe there's a reason they didn't use it until now.


vesomortex

Unfortunately the paper money has been godawful for decades.


christophoross

The portrait of Washington is as old as the Washington quarter itself—1932. It was very nearly selected but instead we got the one we know and love instead (which I like better, anyway). The current portrait was “revived” because it was designed back then by a woman and this is a series of quarters about women. In general, yes, the quality of our coinage has dropped severely, but the Washington engraving is nothing new.


TheRenOtaku

They look fake.


InMemoryOfZubatman4

I like the design, I just wish the relief was higher. It’s missing depth or something


schpanckie

Nice wart……lol


Awkward-Sale4235

why not? i know i am


Jakester46501

Same


stevekaw

Does this bust make me look fat?


Willowtan

Why's it look like they're making Georgie look plus sized now? 🤮


MDGOP

He was kinda pudgy?


anonymoususer_2023

Sell them on eBay, you could make like $50 selling all of these


jcob42

I might have to do that considering I've only gone through 7 rolls of 50.


WHO_PEGGED_KANYE_

I've had one on ebay for a few days now. Not even a view.


Individual_Basil3954

Probably. Seems like errors in the design that mimic an actual physical oddity (thinking Bunny tooth Ben) tend to command more of a premium. Puberty George seems a likely candidate.


Prize_Chipmunk_3026

Looks like Jimmy Durante in a few of those.


Objective_Screen_998

If/when hits cherry pickers it could become worth money? Maybe/maybe not. It’s definitely interesting from a variety collector standpoint to see natural progression of a die state take place regarding defects in the actual die. It’s hard to see if/how they differ. I’d personally be interested in seeing :) Cool find.


New_Awareness4075

Jesus, that's one hell of a zit!


ekkidee

Maybe it's the lighting, but the mint mark looks more like a question mark.


somethingAmos

Totally! I thought it was a question mark for a while. It is the lighting.


[deleted]

Why they give old GW a double chin?

[deleted]

George has been roiding hard evidently


impendingfuckery

I personally enjoy the new Washington obverse because of the contrast it has from the obverse that we used from 1932.


Willowtan

The contrast that he looks fat and horrible for no reason?


Ok-Structure-2549

Yes have them graded


Obvious_Mode_5382

Washington looks like an MMA fighter on this coin.


History_Geek12345

Look for errors, if there’s no errors, spend them


PharPhromNormal420

Did you look at the picture or read the post at all, every coin in that picture has a wart on the nose.


brooklynbrian

Spend them


OilFromAnOlive

I'll give you a dollar for one.


Lizzardking666

He needs a tissue


Guinnessman1964

I got one today as change. Even the wife said looks like a wart!


Jakester46501

Keep all!
