Hey guys, been busy as can be but I've had a few minutes to look at some more of my dads collection. Found this among some other pre 65 quarters i`m trying to go through. Could this be a DDR in USA and quarter dollar or am I too hopeful? Or is it mech doubling? If I need more/better pics say so cause mine are not great sorry. Thx

Did you try and find an attribution number? I think we will need good in focus close ups to help you.

The images are not close enough to see either way. Here is what to look for on DDR for that year from the Variety Vista Site:

If you are seeing something like this:

Then that is Machine Doubling.

Well here`s some others. I thought maybe fs-801 but coop your pics look like them pretty much. Maybe? But if not, it`s still the first doubling of any kind iv`e found. Woohoo

Those are much better pictures for sure, very clear. You have Machine Doubling on the reverse of your coin. It is very apparent in the M and R of AMERICA and all of QUARTER. Your doubling is not worth anything. It is flat and shelflike unlike a true doubled die. Sorry.

Bumpkin is correct yet again! MD is what you have there, Thanks for the close up pictures, they are great. But they only reveal the Machine Doubling all that much more. Keep looking I'm sure you will find your special doubled coin.

If it were a DDR, the devices would be enlarged:

Note the spread is in the centers of the devices. Not on the outside edges of the devices. (that is where you find Machine Doubling) So looking there is a waste of time.

Hate to break it to you, but here with this coin you do NOT have an error. A coin with Machine Doubling (like yours) is considered a "die event" which is classified as neither a variety nor an error. Machine Doubling is fairly common and does not bring a premium evaluation, I am very sorry. The value of your coin is as silver bullion.

One of the sure ways I can determine double vs Machine Doubling is to look at the top of your "A"s, if they have two points then DDO if not Machine Doubling. Coops "A""s have two points at the top. Sometimes it would be the bottom or top point of the "R" that would have two points that can help identify DD.
