Scattered Wyoming quarters may contain future collectors' items if they contain a rare flaw found when the die wobbles.
A flawed Wyoming quarter featuring a double die is shown with a microscopic lens in this photo. The mistake is caused when the die that stamps the quarter design is tilted and wobbles during the stamping process. The incident causes a second impression to be made at the center of the coin.
