mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 12/07/2021 8:15 pm this is a great place to learn much from knowledgeable folk! As to your quarter, this is classic Machine Doubling, and adds no value. Others should chime in later . Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8742 Posts	Posted 12/07/2021 8:26 pm You have MD as stated and damage from probably a coin roller. The easiest way to tell the difference is the size of the devices, if they are not larger, counting what you see as doubling, then more than likely its MD, you can see how it cuts into it's normal size. Here is a link to show you and explain more in depth. Bookmark this site to use in the future.
