I found it!! I noticed I don't have as big of a die crack on the reverse on the right wing but nonetheless it is still looks to be the beginning of a die crack. Also I don't have the die crack across the E pluribus on the reverse. I wondering if that could mean it's a different die stage?

I look at mine and seem promissing on this coin. You has to look at Washington's nose, ear, and the back of the queue. This it is an class IV spread nord.

the wing die crack is present on all 1932 quarters with different degrees. So those Die Cracks are not really markers for this DDO.

The really value of this DDO start with MS-63 and for me this coin could reach this line ( hard to preview what an TPG will say)

I'm only seeing glare from lighting at the moment. Can you get a photo of the ear and nose from a different angle?

It does not look like a DDO there are contact marks on the R,T and Y , although the close up pics are not very clear, the Nose and the Ear could be master die doubling at best. But all together it is a nice looking coin.

No this DDO it is class IV doubled die, not hub doubling. Was present on only one Die. If was Hub doubling was present on many Dies.

I know it is like others years ex: nose or the ear which was Hub doubled and easy to parallel them because seem like the others.

silviosi, your statement is contradictory! a true doubled die is the result of Hub doubling.

@ Chase007:

You wrote on the best it is Master Die Doubling. In this case the working Hub will be Doubled and will produce many Doubled Dies. This DDO has only one Doubled Die, so mean that on the second squeeze the Working Hub doubled one X Die (unknow the specific no of these paticulary die).

Probablly you think one thing and wrote other. This happened many time to all humans.

How work:
ONE Master HUB produce X no. Master Dies.
Each Master Die produce X no of Working Hubs
Each Working Hub produce X no (many) Working Dies.

Thanks Chase007 to put the link. I think after you read you agrees what I put in point 2 and 3 are real.

This FS-101 was find on only one Die. Not more. so are mean the working hub doubled one die and not manny. All the coins which has this future show same characteristics, believe me.

In order me to decide if it is I want to see the back of the queue, this it is significative to decide. The degree of the doubled could varry in function of the Die age (nose and ear) but the queue was stable.

Stan and Herb is not ahymore with us. But Ken and me we are here and we can certify what we saw in the Mint Reserve studies. We do not find thousands but what we find was from same Die and not two.

It is rare? I can not state, but it is a wish for all Quarters collectors been the first Modern Quarter DDO.
