merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 01/03/2020 10:13 pm I don't know quarters real well, but to me, in my opinion, the doubling around the date and mintmark on your coin has the flatting characteristics found with Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff

And as for the inside the "4" it looks like something going on thee as well. Thanks for your feedback :) Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 01/03/2020 10:30 pm You're welcome :) We are all learning, especially me. Many times I have been wrong, but I can only share what I see. Hopefully someone with more experience can help you more definitively here with your coin. Good eye spotting these differences!

HappyMedium New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 01/03/2020 11:07 pm I always try to remember MD looks like a step up & true doubling you can see a size difference if you compare it to another coin same denomination,date,MM. Paraphrasing from what someone else on this site said. Usually true doubling you can see side to side. That doesn't go for all, but if I only suspect doubling on the top, I take a closer look. If I see Doubling or suspected doubling on BOTH sides, I would try to prove how it can't be Machine Doubling on one side or the other. Then look up the coin & try to look for Mint Markers. I've spent more time on some coins than I care to admit. Now I generally skip the trying to prove it is or isn't MD. Usually just go right to Wexlers DD's or Brian's variety and errors list. Sometimes it saves a lot of time, other times I'm more confused than ever! #128580; I've only been at this on & off for 2 yrs. I'm sure someone else will a much better explanation than I. Oh, BTW if my way of thinking doesn't make sense to you seasoned collectors please feel free to correct me. #128580; Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4406 Posts	Posted 01/03/2020 11:10 pm I believe this is a form of Die Deterioration Doubling. You see this effect on a lot of 90's quarters. Report this Post to the Staff
