Im a coin collector your 2022 quarter could be worth $100s, the two 'errant' marks to look fo

A 2022 commemorative quarter is already selling for hundreds of dollars online thanks to an error.

Influencer Eric Miller, who operates the rare coin-focused TikTok account thecoinchannel, recently went over the Wilma Mankiller error quarter to his 4.3million followers.

The quarter was released last summer as part of the US Mint's American Women's Quarter program, which celebrates notable American women and their contributions to society.

Mankiller, a Native American activist and chief, is one of five women to have a design on the inverse of a Washington quarter.

Yet, some of the Wilma Mankiller quarters have been discovered to have a cud error, which is when a die crack or break creates a blob-like appearance and cracks on the coin's surface.

The cud error can be found on the obverse above Washington's head, while there's a big crack on the inverse side.

And since the error was discovered, there have been multiple listings on eBay ranging in the hundreds of dollars.

In fact, one buyer recently paid $840.

The seller claims it is in an uncirculated grade, meaning it's 60 or above.

At the end of the TikTok, Eric went through the steps to put your Wilma Mankiller error coin on eBay.

In addition to the mistakes, the name on the coin should make the coin hard to miss, according to Eric.

"You will not forget a name like Mankiller," he said.

Other valuable mistakes

If you don't happen to have a Wilma Mankiller error coin, there are plenty of other coin mistakes highly sought after by collectors.

Double die errors, which give a coin 3-D appearance, can make a seemingly ordinary penny from the 70s worth over $14,000.

These errors are often confused with double-struck errors, which result from a coin being struck more than once, which can make it barely recognizable.

For instance, a double-struck nickel with a Thomas Jefferson's bust almost completely botched could be worth more than $20,000.
