Spence Moderator United States 34413 Posts	Posted 04/13/2020 07:04 am @cookie, it is a little hard to tell from the pics, but your '87-D appears to have split plate doubling on the mintmark.

QuarterHoarder72 Pillar of the Community United States 2156 Posts	Posted 04/13/2020 1:20 pm The 61-D looks like circulation flattening to me, normal coin. The '87-D looks like playing bubbles and split plate doubling to me. Nothing error like that I can see. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/13/2020 3:41 pm I think you are referring to the angle placement of the mint marks? That is normal because they are added to the dies with a punch done by hand until 1990 when the mintmark is since then part of the dies design. So no more RPMs after 1990. If there is doubling on the mintmark, then it is part of the doubled dies: Report this Post to the Staff
