I agree with Charles 1000% on this as well. Definitely incorrect in the PCGS glossary.

And I am glad that he pointed out that it is DOUBLED DIE wit a D :-) That one drives me nuts:-) Doubled Die not Double Die:-)

Simply stated:

A "Variety" occurs in the production of the actual die ( master or working ) and an "Error" occurs in any other aspect of the coin production process ( i.e the striking, planchet production processes, etc.)

I hope its ok to reply to this, as its an older post, but I am trying to educate myself with the wealth of information on this site, and this post is amazing, and has clarified a lot for me. Or confused me more...not sure...too much information for me to absorb all at once, lol.
I just wanted to say thanks, this has to be helpful to so many, especially me!

Hi,
We purchased last weekend a graded by anacs triple die obv die 2 Washington quarter 1942 for 30.00 Could anyone possibly give us some info about this? We cannot find any information ourselves. We have tried. Could anyone possibly give us a rough idea of possible value of the coin?
