Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74542 Posts	Posted 07/02/2018 11:26 pm That's Machine Doubling. It was very common on the ATB Quarters. About 70 percent out of 100 Quarters that Coop examined has Machine Doubling on the reverse. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 07/03/2018 10:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 01:08 am It is MD. I don't know about the 70% determination, but it occurs randomly and fairly frequently.

Yours does not look like a doubled die either,more like MD because of the "flattish" look to it. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 10:14 pm The stretched look is from the edge of the die leaving metal striation marks. On his coin the the edge of the die didn't touch the coin, but the same result. The doubling from die movement from the Machine Doubling altered this before or after the strike. 70% of the ATB Quarter have some to extreme amounts of MD. I check 100 random ATB Quarters and came up with the figure. Someone else did the same check and came up with the same percentage numbers. Report this Post to the Staff
