1958 Washington Quarter – NGC MS65 – Struck on 10c Planchet Stock – Rare Mint Error
This exceptional 1958 Washington Quarter is not your ordinary silver-era quarter—it's a fascinating mint error, certified NGC MS65, struck on 10-cent planchet stock, making it an extraordinary find for advanced error collectors.
During the production process, planchet stock meant for dimes (10-cent coins) was mistakenly used to strike this quarter. While the coin retains the full quarter design, the thinner dime stock results in noticeably shallower details, lighter weight, and a flatter strike, offering unmistakable visual clues to its unusual origin. These errors are rare and highly sought after due to the combination of clear design misalignment and the novelty of mixed-denomination characteristics.
Graded Mint State 65 by NGC, this piece is in outstanding condition for any coin, let alone a mint error. It exhibits sharp remaining detail, minimal contact marks, and brilliant luster, preserving the unique nature of this striking mistake with exceptional eye appeal.
A standout example of a wrong planchet error, this 1958 Washington Quarter struck on 10c planchet stock is a conversation piece, a true rarity, and a prized addition for collectors of U.S. mint errors, Washington quarters, or mid-century U.S. coinage. A fascinating and visually compelling minting mishap that rarely surfaces in such high grade.

‘’I had gone to a couple of other places and they weren’t the nicest people and were trying to rip me off. The people at copper state were very knowledgeable and kind. They taught me a lot along the way too. Mike and Ivy were big helps in my situation. The place is also very organized, clean and they were professional!! I recommend you go here! I will be back!’’
‘’Very nice and pleasant experience. Mike, the owner took time to show me some very cool things!! He also spent time to educate me about things I wanted to know and answered all my silly questions too! (And there were a LOT of them!!) I am really going to enjoy this shop and look forward to returning again and again. Mike is fair, honest, respectful, and kind. What more could you ask for?’’
‘’First time visit to the shop was great! All were fun to talk with friendly to work with and outstanding to do business with. I was looking for some specific items. They went above and beyond to double check inventory not under glass. Boy, did they make my day. Not only did they find, it but they gave me the best deal in town. I will be back again! Thank you Mike! Copper State is a new spot for me now.’’
‘’Found a couple of the 2009 Formative Years” I have been looking for. Came to Copperstate Coins responding to an ad not knowing they were a coin dealer. Met with Ivy to pick up my rolls. All in the store were extremely polite not pushy helpful and I left with more than I came in for. Without a doubt greatest place to go if you’re just getting into the hobby, which I am, I will be a frequent customer. Thank you!!’’
‘’This company needs an option for more than 5 starts, how about 10!? Customer service is AMAZING , they are outstanding in every single way! Since using this company, I have had 10 or more people I referred them to, and same outcome. No doubt, zero disappointment.’’
