Description
SKH-25c-2005P-01(KS) documents a spiked head on a State Quarter: the 2005 (P) Kansas State Quarter, whose reverse features a bison standing in profile against a field of sunflowers. The Kansas Quarter designation "(KS)" within the catalog number identifies the specific State Quarter design, distinguishing this entry from other potential quarter spiked heads across the fifty-state program. The obverse carries the familiar Washington portrait where the die crack originated, and the spike projects from Washington's head rather than Lincoln'sāa visual novelty for collectors accustomed to seeing spiked heads exclusively on cents. Attributed and cataloged by Cuds on Coins from Philadelphia Mint production.
