I see what you mean. The 'doubling' on the leaf is pretty extreme. It's a shame the coin is so banged up.

Also check out the last picture, under the wing, above the arrow heads, damage or ?

I think the area above the arrowheads is a reeding damage from the edge of another quarter. PSD

I agree Coop, but if you look above that, right in the corner of the wing, you should see what I'm referring to. But more over, is this doubling or just damage? The leaf and in the corner of the wing above the arrows. I can post more pictures of the area in the corner of the wing if needed.

What a out the branch itself . Specifically the branch right below the leaf in question. Also the branch exact opposite of that on looks the same. Got me and yeah the lower portion of wing you can't really see if that's doubling . But I'm more curious to get an answer for the leaf and branch

The area on the branch is overall that normal in size, just reduced along with the leaf with machine damage.

Here is a better picture of the spot under the wing.

It is also a reduction of the overall devices. It is were hub doubling it would be rounded and enlarged in the design. It also shows the sign of machine damage on those devices.

So, the areas with the black arrows are normal, and the red arrow is just machine damage? Is that normal for only one leaf to show the damage, being that it's all part of the same section of the die? Or am I just incorrect on this? When I've seen MD in the past, it shows on pretty much all of the leaves, I've not ever seen it on just one before. I mean, it would make more sense, if each leaf was a different part of the die, but how can the die only move for the one leaf and not the rest?

Well looking closer at a few things, I checked for a clash issue, but nothing seems to stand out as a cause for what you are seeing on your quarter from that event. It always appears as flat looking and not like hub doubling. Checking other examples from the RDV-14's I don't see this on them. So it might be die wear or die damage on that die. It doesn't follow the dies design. That is where I'm at on your coin. I would save for now. Maybe something else will turn up?
