When it comes to doubled dies I think my judgment is on par, but once in a while, I do come across situations where I feel I need to have extra eyes take a look and confirm, or convince me otherwise.

After reaching out to a couple of fellow collectors that I felt had solid judgment as well and them coming to the same conclusion as I did, today I am sharing a somewhat minor 1967 Silver 25 Cent doubled die reverse, it can be easily seen with a loup.

I have been sitting on this discovery for about 2 months debating on including it in my book or posting it, I had a very small reason to believe it could possibly be from Master Die Doubling as I have recently been uncovering numerous years/denominations from the 60s and 70s being the result of master die doubling.

Upon comparing this quarter to numerous other bobcat quarters, for now, I am 98% sure that this is NOT master die doubling but until I can do some research on how many master dies were used for the 1967 25 cent quarter I leave these images for the community to judge and enjoy.


Red arrows show where you will find split serifs and extra thickness.

I will upload more photos when time permits, including full images of the coin. There are numerous areas (including the bobcat) that show doubling.

This post was supposed to be in the Error & Variety section if an admin could kindly move it, my apologies.

Moved to varieties subforum.

Nice sharp eyes to catch this one. The upper right corner of the 7 is the easiest identifier.
