I do not think it is a doubled die. Looks like MD or abraded die. John1

I hope this helps you get a better look.    I know the whole coin looks deceiving so it's hard to say whether I'm right or not but I have been right before and then again everyone's entitled to atleast one in life LOL

Even isolated die polishing can make a dip into the fields on a die. When this happens, it leaves a raised area on the fields on the coins struck with that die.

Ok so over polished or warn die doubling with a strong strike?

It will also happen on a normal strike as well. That is a die issue. Having a hard strike will often give you stronger devices.

I definitely have been listening to the thing you say about DD. That's why I was crossing my fingers in hopes that since it was in the middle of the coin it would be a DD

I would suggest you look up the John Wexler site and see what to look for on DDR's on the States/ATB quarters. The area affected in the central area of the die/coins where the DDR is found. Other areas can be disregarded when you under stand why just one area will be affected. http://doubleddie.com/719755.htmlBut they don't have any listed ones yet for that State/Design. But look at the other designs and note where on the coin these DDRs are found. On the States Reverses, the Minnesota Quarters have a huge number of DDRs on just one design. http://doubleddie.com/179422.htmlKnowing where to look, then you will find these DDRs. Keep in mind that they are raised on the field or designs, that should not be there:  Knowing where to look will keep you from being less satisfied with what you are finding.

Less satisfied? I'm not sure what you mean. I have been looking at wexler's and that's why I asked about this quarter. The spot that I was truly wondering about was right in the center. But just because it's not listed on wexler's doesn't stop me from looking at every coin I find for that one passed over in the search. The difference between ignorant and stupid, ignorance means you don't know but stupid means you can't learn and I am far from stupid. That's why I found the 2001 P nickel. well I have had it for almost a year but didn't know what I was looking at untill recently. And now I found another. So.... Yeah
