100% absolute die cracks all the way around. I don't think I have ever seen any coin with so many die cracks. Excellent observation in noticing this gsp!

Thanks Bumpkin, it's the most I have seen on a single coin but as you know I just started looking at coins so was unsure how common that many cracks is. Plus I can see those where DD I cannot! lol

Like I said.... Once you find that first doubled die you will never look back! I promise! It's like hunting for Wild Ginseng. Once you see it wild in the woods, you can then spot it from a mile away. (OK... that is a whole different adventure)  Edited by Bumpkin

Nice example--die crack city. Suggest a gentle acetone soak.

@bupkin, wild ginseng is rare to spot but if you know it you know it. Also unfortunately completely illegal to harvest wild ginseng in Ontario. And at 500$+ poachers are an issue-_-.
As for the OPs coin, very nice that is a lot of die cracks.

Don't forget to rinse with fresh acetone after soaking:)

You could be right with distilled water, I have heard both talked about.

I've heard that some folks soak in acetone, with a rinse in fresh acetone. then distilled water to clean it off.
Nice find on your quarter
