MINNESOTA Statehood Quarters-Die Varieties

[Bubblehead]

 

Wow.   Has anyone else here done any investigation, or even looked at these quarters?

I was browsing eBay earlier, spotted some MN SQ's with varied DDR's, DDO's, etc., and
since their prices seemed astronomical to me, I did some further checking.

I ended up at the PCGS Washington State Quarter Registry. Immediately, I noticed a
special registry set for this state, ALONE!  Huh?  Yes!

There is a specialty registry set, composed of no less than (74), Yes, Seventy-Four,
different varieties!  Holy Toledo!   

Comments, anyone??

Wow! Sounds like a good time to go through some MN quarters.

Really though, how could the Mint have let so many varieties through?

That's the question, Carl.  How could this have happened?  I mean, it's
sooooo singular; that to me anyway, it would seem as tho mint workers had something
to do generating the myriad die varities discovered! 

I now wonder if dates and times of minting might be super important?  I want to dig around,
to see if that assumption carry's any weight! 

I wonder...were I to ask the eBay seller, who is offering the majority of them, if he/she
is aware of any particular dates and times of minting, directed to any particular variety?

They would not say, huh?  Figures.  I probably would not, myself...  And for now,
I would but recommend anyone holding these SQ's, to lock 'em up for now!!

There are (7) collectors who have, to now, registered this set in the registry.  The
No. 4 set belongs to the eBay seller who lists a majority of the different varieties.

FWIW...
