tryingmybest Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 01/20/2021 2:52 pm Hello- I am looking at an old collection of Proof coins that my mother has had stored for over 55 years. While searching for varieties I have come upon this quarter. It seems to have a TDR particularly of the left bottom and top letters and leaves. Particularly see the Us bottoms of leaves and opening of R in Quarter. I can not find a reference for this. Any thoughts? The quarter is still in the cellophane so I apologize for the photos- hey are clear but not as clear as I would like to present to this group. Thank you.

tryingmybest Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 01/20/2021 3:16 pm I added another photo at the bottom marking three of the areas in question. I'm sorry I can't get it clearer without opening the cello which I'm trying not to do at this point as it remains part of the set.

tryingmybest Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 01/20/2021 3:21 pm Thanks for your comment and help. I am not used to seeing Machine Doubling on proofs so I thought to post his and get opinions. This group has always been a terrific reference thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
