Yeah, I agree. That's the best thing to do is contact them and tell them they are not errors. If they keep persisting, report the listings.

Strike Doubling is an error and there is a market for the stronger ones. The dishonesty comes in when someone knows it and calls it a Doubled Die. That's false advertising and should carry a penalty. I hope if ebay gets enough complaints they give em the boot.

Believe it or not, it took me quite a while to get that many quarters. I used 100 to see how many out of the number were affected. Easy math. How many have it, then that is the percentages.

Ok coop, here are the results of my search going through: 2014-P Utah 2011-D Washington 2014-S Tennessee

UTAH : 79 MD out of 100, 79% (69% larger letters(55coins),30% outside of normal design(24 coins)
WASHINGTON: 23 OUT OF 40 57% (56% larger letters(23 coins) , 44% outside of normal design(10 coins)
TENNESSEE: 66 out of 100 66% (66% larger letters(44 coins) , 33% outside of normal design(22 coins)
I found the Washington to be with the most interesting MD's

Posting some examples thought they are pretty interesting!

Wow, Chase007. Amazing results huh? I now see why ebay sellers get very tricked easily as Doubled Dies.

Buddy, you have a good point, but as you know majority of these MD's are not easily seen with naked Eyes.

Buddy: LOL Actually there is a better chance on looking at the centers of the design for doubled dies on this series.

Here is some update information from some quarters I found during the search for how many out of 100 are machine doubled. I found in the 70% area of minor to stronger machine doubled examples on these. So they are quite common. I took images of a few strong ones and a new conclusion I came to on these.

I feel the first kiss of the die alters the planchet with a mark, but the strike enhances this area making it look like it is doubled. But they are not doubled dies.

Ok Coop,

Just for the sake of education, how do you explain this doubling,it clearly does not fit in the incuse nor reduced in size or enlarged category that was explained above.the doubling is raised.This is the only one I have seen in the 100 ATB's I searched.
Thank you.
