Origin:An article published onWoman's World on 31 May 2016 described arare U.S. quarter from 1970 that was purportedly minted by accident on the back of a Canadian coin: We all have loose change sitting around, despite our promises to ourselves to roll 'em and bring 'em to the bank--or at least deposit them in one of those sorting machines.

And believe us, we have many phone calls rolling in about their 1970 quarter they found in pocket change. If you want to search your pocket change, by all means!  Here's what to look for… First, understand that in 1970, the United States Mint produced over 550,000,000 Quarters for 1970 quarter pocket change.  They were all made in copper-nickel, so very few have been melted for their intrinsic (metallic).  Which is unlike Quarters from 1964 and before - it's illegal to melt them, but as they were made of 90% silver, some have been.  So there are very near 550 MILLION floating around out there.  They are VERY common in pocket change.  Then, the mint produced 2,500,000 1970 S Proof Quarters with mirror fields. 1970 d quarter  They were all sold in proof sets, and very few made it to circulation.  But still, 2.5M proof quarters were made. The easiest thing to look for is the Mint Mark.  On the obverse of the coin (heads), many Quarter Dollars will have a Mint Mark, the letter "D".  That resides at the bottom right of the bust, right next to Washington's braid ribbon.  Some quarters minted in Philadelphia have no Mint Mark in that area and are just blank, some have the small letter "D", and those coins are generally worth 25 cents.  There were literally billions of quarters minted that year, and unless they are in absolutely spectacular mint state (bright and shiny with full mint luster, but never polished or cleaned) , they will always be worth about 25 cents. Proof Quarters will have a mirror finish and they will all have the Mint Mark "S", in the same place as described before.  These quarters were also minted in Copper-Nickel alloy, not silver, and thousands were made. The Quarter you are looking for is a very specialized variety of 1970 S Proof Quarter.  If your coin does not have an "S" Mint Mark, you definitely don't have the coin.  Of the 2.5M Proof Quarters out there, a few dozen were struck over Canadia

The vast majority are struck correctly and enter circulation or end up in collectors hands. In order to leave the U.S. Mint facilities, the coins must pass through a series of quality control checkpoints.If a coin is found to be struck with an error in the design, or if the coining machinery malfunctions and produces misshapen or partially-struck coins, all of the coins in question are destroyed. However, each year a very few rogue coins manage to escape the eyes of inspectors and are accidentally released into circulation. These error coins are highly sought after for their rarity as well as their unusual nature. Due to their rarity, error coins can be expensive. This type of mint error is called a Broadstrike. These are coins struck outside of their retaining collar and are larger than coins of the same denomination. When coins are struck without being contained in the collar die, they spread out. There are various types of broadstrikes centered, off centered etc. These mint error coins would be an interesting addition to any coin collection.
