Hello- I'm new so forgive my lack of knowledge. My question(s) involve a Bicentennial quarter, a Shawnee quarter, and a 1969 S cent. The quarters look like they are DDOs and the cent has what looks like an S over D if compared to the 1946 S over D. I paid my membership fee to one of the big grading companies and elected for "attribution". None of the coins received any confirmation of doubling or a mintmark error so I looked under the scope again after receiving them back from the Grader. Again, I'm new at this so perhaps I'm not understanding exactly what a DDO really is or what is happening with the mintmark. With regard to the mm on the 69 cent there is what looks like a clear punch mark underneath the S as opposed to a Cud. Another interesting mark that looks like an A appears on the "W". Anyway would love your thoughts. Btw the quarters graded low which I knew would be the case-Shawnee AU-55, Bicentennial-AU-58, 1969s-MS64RD. Thanks so much.

To CCF! No Doubled Die here, just Die Deterioration Doubling. Please don't waste a cent getting these graded, as it's gonna cost way more than what they're worth.

EV I think she already had them graded. I don't see any errors or varieties on quarters. '69 S would love to take a closer look at the mintmark, if you are able to provide a clear picture.

OP I would suggest for you to take a look at different sites to learn what to look for and watch some videos on YouTube to learn different classes of doubled dies.

By the way, Coop has great videos on Doubled dies, I'd suggest you look at his 5 videos. I've learned a lot from watching his videos and frequently visiting this forum

Thank you all! Wish I could get a better shot of the 1969 s but the slab is making it difficult. Just glad to know the Grader was accurate. Lots to learn. Youtube is my new obsession so I'll Coop a look. Thank you again and Kind Regards!

Welcome Carolinacoingirl. The best way to get a better response on your coins is to post each coin in its own thread. If it like having someone taste what your cooking tastes like and have all the different foods mixed together on the plate. So a different thread for each coin will help make more sense. The links to my youtube videos is on the area below this on my signature line. The are titled 1-5. 5 Different subjects and they are about 20 minutes each. I call it: "Coin Fishin', What to keep, what to throw back." Enjoy.

On the cent and its mint mark...most likely a broken punch,very common and on all denominations for 69 and 70s.
to CCF, keep posting (larger photos-please) and asking, best of luck on future finds..and always ask here before you send in any more coins...Happy hunting, have fun...
