Can you be specific about what you're seeing on this coin?

I see some fairly extreme Machine Doubling on the letters of "CONNECTICUT" but other than that it looks normal to me.

To me it looks like a double die, but I have a feeling it's only Machine Doubling.
The experts will be along momentarily and give you a proper assessment.
I like it though, good eye.

To the forum!

Lots of smart people here ready to help you! I'm not one of the smart ones, I'm here learning too.

@peter123, first welcome to CCF. Second, that shelf-like doubling on CONNECTICUT looks like a really nice example of Machine Doubling to me.

It is helpful to share with us where your "error" might be. It is also helpful to always show us both sides of the coin and any close-ups of areas in question. Thank you.

to the CCF!

Machine doubling, and a very strong example at that.

It is Machine Doubling on your coin. The dies for these quarters show the doubled dies on the central areas of the design, and not towards the outer edges of the devices.:

Note on this link what to took for on a DDR on these quarters. The States and the ATB Quarters all have the DDR's in the Center of the designs.

Also on the obverses, the earlobe area and the motto can also show DDO's on those areas

Just a few examples of the motto doubled, but several listed on the site above for each of the series.
