Hi,

I received this 1776-1976 D Quarter in pocket change. After further review online, that there is a DDO for this year. I am thinking that I mite have one? Any opinions? Or help would be great. Thank you.

Not a DDO. MD or worn die.

Here is what the DDO-001 looks like:

Note the width on the LIBERTY? Your coin is from a normal die with machine damage on the devices.

I have one that doesn't resemble the one above, 1976-D. There are two variations listed on the coin sites, can't determine if these examples fall in either of those categories.

The first looks like MD, a different angle may show it better. The angle you used on the second is perfect. You can clearly see the flattened devices. It looks like a shelf. Also the retraction rolled the upper edge of the R and part of the B up. This is a good example of MD.

That is a nice example of MD you have. Good to keep.

Dean's coin is also MD. Note how the 'B' is reduced in size. On hub doubling you see the normal size of the device and a doubled spread on the device. On the MD examples the area in question are flattened, Always the same color as there is no contour to show light to dark. Just a flat step look.
