Hi all, I am new to the forum and have been searching BU rolls for the extra V variant and have something odd. I am wondering if anyone has seen this or can help clarify. Thanks!

We have seen lots of the 'extra V' cents so far, but I think this is not one of them, I think that it is just a circulation hit.

 to the CCF! One the Extra V cents, the V is not only the same orientation, but the same size as the original V in VDB. I think this is just a couple of contact marks as Dearborn says. BUT, with that said, hang on to it JUST in case more show up with the same "Checkmark" in the same location. It'll only cost you a cent!

We just invent different varieties of extra V.

The extra "V" is not the same size as the real one. But the roller lines running through and inside the anomaly have me considering that it isn't PSD either.

Possibly a rotated die clash of the inside of the "A" in STATES? A full coin shot of the obverse and reverse would be good.

Quote: Possibly a rotated die clash Um, no. a) no amount of rotation would but the "A" where the "V" appears. b) a die clash would produce a raised area, not an incuse area.

The original extra V is incuse and was said to be invariant (same on all coins) across a large sample and therefore Mike Diamond thinks its somehow an intentionally modified working hub therefore striking all the coins the same as each other. If further examples appear that are different than that one but are also all identical to each other (no variance), this could point to another separately modified working hub. However if the examples continue to vary, I had mentioned ejection impact doubling is known to produce these type of extra letters in variable positions and distance and Mike Diamond responded to that saying also that: " Machine Doubling and ejection impact doubling both produce extra elements in variable positions." So at the moment additional examples will help with whats going on. Yes as Dearborn mentioned of course there can be circulation hits but so far that may not be the case here. I also learned that new Schuler MRH horizontal coin minting presses are used now. One link said there may even be differences in the different models being used in the feeding and ejecting components as well and says the mint uses the Schuler MRH 150 (horizontal) for quarters. So someone with knowledge of these at some point might be able to learn how those type of errors might happen. 2023-P Bessie Coleman quarters with doubled initials seem to be having ejection impact doubling but not sure if the press for the cents is even the same.

As far as rotation, it could be a die that was dropped on the other and rotation would be out the window. I cannot tell if it is in relief or incuse in this pic. To me, it looks to oppose the VDB though and we know it's incuse. Regardless, it would be nice to have a clear pic of the obverse and reverse.

Here is the full coin where the V can be seen on the obverse. I am unfamiliar with all the possibilities here!
