1934 Washington 25c Variety Redue Pics

Seems I'm getting some different opinions here. It's all good. Then I apologize for the pics.. I've added a few to try and show more detail and better angles. I am working on lighting and distsance to get better with this. Being able to provide for others to view. It is a little difficult. Seems some difference on what others need to see what they want.

I can assure you there are markis on the chin, nose that show well. But I can't seem to catch yet. At least on these series of pics.. There is one member that piocked up on it right away on the possible $300 plus variety. This is the one I was thinking. I have to check google and find the related # agin. Anybody know of hand by vhance?

There is also marks on bottom of ponytail and two that seem to connect with each other just to the right of ponytail on the rim and flashes to the other point to its left towards the bottom of the neck.

As is though, can't you guys see at least the action around date & espesially IGWT. plus the area between the 'E & R' in LIBERTY? figured these were clear enough to see in these pics.

And wait a minute... what about the areas around the nech bottom and up and aroun=d to the nose. Seems to be alot of seperation or certain activity in this ares. Also i'll work om getting the marks to show on the tip of nose and chin. I'm positive of these and would like them to be seen. Thanks for taking part and to hear more.

joey. I agree with Jayman931 in not seeing a DDO. Like most newbies, you want so much for your coin to be the error or variety you think it is. There are untold resources on the net, including this forum, with descriptions and photos of any error or variety coin you can think of. Study them and eventually you will be able to tell for yourself. Meanwhile rely on the judgement of the contributors to this forum.

Plenty of people posts pictures of coins they think are doubled dies. None of us said it definitely was not a DD we simply said from the pictures provided we are not seeing a dd. Some very knowledgeable people have responded with the same responses.




Think you need to reread what he said....He asked where did you get the $300 figure from. You said in your original post it was worth $300. No one to my viewing of the threads said it was worth $300 besides you.

I'm not sure what your photo set up is but if you get better pictures you will get more and better responses. Could it be a DD? Yes. Can we tell from your pictures? No. I would say try to get some better pictures. There are some tips to coin photography in the photography section of this site. You would be amazed at some of the pictures members here take with a loupe and a camera phone.

From the 10 pictures posted from the OP all I'm seeing is Machine Doubling at very best and that's being generous.Given condition of coin I'd give it $3.95 silver melt value at today's fair market value.Even if it turned out to be a DD I'd say 5 10 bucks because of condition which is below Good-

I really do appreciate the comments and interjections. And I apologize for the poor pics.. I am constantly working on them getting better. And they will.

But what I do not get or understand. Is the wolf like members nready to pounce on any and all mistakes or learning curves! Which all must go through to learn correctly. As I am sure all of you and I did. Not sure sometimes if the veterans when they say "I don't see it". If they mean it really not the one. Or they are saying in a outside way for me to provide better pictures for members to view in order to evaluate. And they are seeing what I am presenting. But not willing to say yet until I provide the better pictures.

Which in this case holds true. As I've gone back and looked hard at this coin and the true marks are still there. And I see them even stronger. As I have found a better way to enlarge them for viewing and I will present them here soon. For all to see. I'll stick my neck out so to speak.

On the tip of nose and the chin are obvious. And in IGWT and neck and the P-tail to the rim are also ther4e. And of coarse, Lib. between the E and R. I was wondering even if they are poor pics, Why experienced experts could not see them. Cause I can. And I am experienced and getting better. But no means an expert yet. I figure then if the pics are so poor that they can't really be seen. An expert would know what is to some sort anyway. But would still need to see clearly to be sure, But have an idea? Yes I think so.

I value all comments and participation. It is the path of learning. I could still be proven wrong. But I still have enough info. to keep me involved to show and prove my point. I know what I am seeing. Just haven't been able to convey them yet. Hopefully the new pics will.

And if the pics prove me wrong I'll accept without hesitation and on to the next one.

And to the $300 comment. You are right. My mistake. On the comment that was really here in this post not in the grading post. Guess I was really tired. I got confused and stated it wrong in my defense. Apologies.But I did get the info. when I searched Google on the variety when I first purchased. There is a variety in this date like this I'm pretty sure. For this grade. Fine to very fine.

With respect, this is not just a Good grade at best. Is a Mid. to high fine easy. Have crossed checked with my ANA grading standards book on hand. Have to check the grading post. But I think a member mentioned in their opinion it was VF. And "Nice Find". If I remember. then again I could be wrong. I'll check. Not perfect I am.

That is most definitely not FS-101 which is a very obvious doubled die with a huge spread that is visible even in very low grades. All of your arrows are pointing to damage and contact marks, not any kind of doubling.

Thanks Jasper!

Figured as much. As the member pointed on reply just before, looks like not from contact in most pointed out areas. Area between the ER in Liberty looks like real activity? Does it not?

But the area around the mouth, nose and p-tail possibly genuine? Any ideas? And activity outward from the nose towards the rim? And thanks for all comments.

was really about testing the pics. Hoping that a member who had commented before would see and notice. You did. Now I can apply to better material> Thanks again!

much better pics!

Ya unfortionitely definitely not a FS-101, just damage, ware & contact marks. Worth basically what you paid for it.. Which is great, at least you didn't buy it as a FS-101.
