Dutch-Tigger Valued Member United States 301 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 01:33 am Greetings To CCF. the pictures are nice but its just not enough for me to decern if this is one of the 4 DDO`s listed here. Check with the coin in hand. http://www.varietyvista.com/09b%20W...201951-D.htm On the last photo close up of IGWT there seems to be doubling that surrounds the devices, if this is so and not some light aberration then this would be Die Deterioration Doubling. lets see what the others come up with Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95443 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 07:56 am The devices (the letters of IGWT) are fat, but that looks like circulation flattening to me.

nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 11:05 am could be doubled die, but pics not high enough resolution at IGWT to distinguish from Machine Doubling Report this Post to the Staff

Newbieee Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 2:30 pm Hello all, thanks.. glad to be here. Let me start by saying it would have to be a gold quarter for me to post a circulated lol. I have a 10 year old phone and I just cant get it to focus through the ten times without enough light/glare. Have a microscope with lcd screen being delivered on Thursday and will post updated photos as well as the die marks/pooling on Liberty. I would have to say fs-101 after comparing with a 20x. Found the die cracks on forehead and into hair. The R in Liberty does not have the groove like mark but instead pooled metal just above where that groove is on the variety posted on Vista. The die scratch on front in between E & R of Liberty does not show up on this coin. I will attach a couple more pics but its the best I can do for a couple days. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 3:27 pm I will wait for the scope photos. Make sure to use a memory card in your scope and not take a photo of the scopes screen and post it.Slso,filter your light source.

Newbieee Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 06/20/2023 7:24 pm Will do John, as I mentioned using this phone camera with filtered light it will not focus so I will update in a couple days. Report this Post to the Staff
Dutch-Tigger Valued Member United States 301 Posts	Posted 06/21/2023 12:15 am Great to hear about you getting new equipment to aid in you analyses, but don`t forget to be a match of a listed DDO etc. A coin receiving a doubled image from a doubled die striking the coin will match EXACTLY (in every single detail) with all the other doubled coins made with those dies. The way dies and doubled die are produced, it is impossible to get partial matches. So even the Die Markers depending on witch Stage of wear the Die was in when your coin was struck must match as well.. Good Luck though will be waiting....

Newbieee Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 06/23/2023 05:20 am Ok.. having a little trouble getting rid of the glare. Tried making a tube with writing paper but it just doesn't seem to work too well for such miniscule doubling. Pointers would be awesome! Checked the markers on the 51 and everything matches except for the die scratch between Liberty. Maybe earlier die? Still cant figure out how to get the glare off but I am trying. Pulled out the 41 with heavier doubling in better cosmetic shape besides the holster toning and got some decent images I think. Die marker on bust and forehead for 41' DDO FS-102 in post.
