3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 1:33 pm Not sure what I have, But this looks like a small D directly on top of a large D Mint mark. Is this a variety for this year? I am ruling out Machine Doubling because there is a difference at the top and at the bottom of the mint mark. Report this Post to the Staff

3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 1:34 pm Also I don't see Machine Doubling on the rest of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Dustin6 Pillar of the Community United States 3516 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 1:48 pm It is machine damage, where all the glare is. It is machine damage. I can see it under it a bit. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 1:53 pm Sorry, it not a RPM. It is machine damage to the coin after the strike. You can see the same thing on other devices on the reverse at the same angle. (probably more of this is hidden in the glare with the lighting? Report this Post to the Staff
3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 1:58 pm then I would assume the shift was north? I also show a shift south when you look at the top of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 2:01 pm I agree. That looks like the direction. Report this Post to the Staff
3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 2:22 pm Well I checked the coin again under 3oX and it doesn't show the machine damage you are seeing in those other areas. I looked from all angles. Please answer why I would have shifts opposite each other. one up and one down. I will try to send better pictures Report this Post to the Staff
3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/16/2016 2:43 pm Here are some more pics. Again I tried not to sharpen as much so to keep the detail the same and maybe reduce the machine damage look. Report this Post to the Staff
3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/17/2016 10:37 am here are some more images. Again the D on top is smaller from the top and from the bottom. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/17/2016 11:28 am The die might has swung one direction and back again. This happens sometimes. (not real often though, usually in one direction) It does not add a premium to the coin. Note on the bottom of the mint mark. The shape shows a flat bottom to the mint mark where the mint mark was moved by the MD. (the first two images show this on the thread just above this one) Report this Post to the Staff
3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/17/2016 11:41 am Thanks Richard. Is there an image of a D over D on the 1964 quarter? The ones I have seen for sale are all machine damage or have worse images than mine! Report this Post to the Staff
