Symerly New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 07/05/2015 11:50 pm I would like your opinions on this 1965 quarter I have here. According to the coin collectors book the 1965 quarter is doubled and most noticeable on the "BER" in LIBERTY and as well in the "IN GOD WE TRUST" in its entirety. But would like to point out on eagle side of the coin if the eagle seems to look a little odd to me. I.e. The tail looks larger. Then after the last "A" in AMERICA there appears to be a part of another wing. The eagles legs look fatter and taller. There's a 3rd set of feathers beneath the other ones closer to the body. His neck as well looks fatter. To me it looks more like a condor to me. You can call me crazy but that's why I need your thoughts thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 07/06/2015 3:47 pm Agreed that better pics are needed. Try lowering your ISO setting to reduce the noise in the photos. What you are seeing is most likely Machine Doubling, before you get your hopes up. 1965 was the first year of striking on cupronickel clad planchets, which behave differently than silver. As a result, they did a lot of fine tuning before they figured out the correct pressure for striking quarters. Report this Post to the Staff
