Hello all, just wondering your thoughts on this 2013 Fort McHenry Quarter date. The part is the 2 and 0 of the date. It does not look like any MD I have ever seen, if it is. Thank you for the help.

If the date is incuse, the Machine Doubling takes a different turn to appearance. The devices get enlarged and not reduced on normal raised devices. I can't tell from the image if they are raised or incuse? The mark through the "3" tells me it is incuse.

Hello all, so if the date is incused then the MD would also be incused. I ask because the marks that I am asking about ( next to the 2 & 0) are also incused. I added this pic because of the bottom of the lettering. That is in a different direction than the date. Thank you for the help.

So the marks are enlarged Machine Doubling from die movement during the strike.
