2004 Florida Statehood Quarter Discovery Piece

1.

2. Nice presentation

3. You have a normal coin.

4. This forum is a great learning resource.

denco what I see now is that You just go with what ever they say does it look like yours all of a sudden too?

All I am seeing is some Machine Doubling. Flat and shelf-like, no split serifs on the letters, and thickness removed from the high points of the letters instead of being added to, as in the case of a true doubled die. I have seen Machine Doubling on many of the Statehood Quarters, it's a very common occurance and not worth anything. Also, it would be very unusual for a modern doubled die to affect the outer devices such as on your coin. The mint uses a "single Squeeze" method to produce the dies, and as such, most doubling occurs near the center of the coin. For example, all the "extra fingers" on the 2009 Lincoln Formative Years Cent, the extra "trees" on the Minnesota Quarters, and the doubled earlobes on the Statehood Quarters. Keep looking though, they are out there!

First of all , when I first posted, your link was broken and all anyone could see was a blue screen. ( do you not know what an emoticon is?) After someone fixed your link, I edited my post to reflect the fact that I could watch it, and in my opinion all you were showing was due to Post Mint Damage.

Secondly do you really think that it is helpful to join the forum and in your first 5 posts take such a snarky attitude towards those YOU asked for an opinion ?




Just because you are not getting the answers you want to hear ?

In my opinion many of the pictures showed PMD others have seen MD, if you see something else then just tell us, then we can concur or differ in our opinions. What is it you want us to see ?

only one way to prove them wrong Jove send it in... Good Luck on Your mission and take it out of ebay just in c ASE

I cant believe this thread is still going.

He said he was kidding, referring to the blue screen.

This one is done.
