Hello all, very new to this forum and posting so I apologize if things aren't in order. I picked up this quarter from my LCS and noticed under the microscope that something about some of the lettering (most noticeably in the mintmark) appears doubled. The FS-801 variety of this coin denotes a die chip on the eagle's head, which this coin appears to have. I'm pretty inexperienced in errors so any words of advice thoughts are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.   |

Yeah, those folded edges look a lot like slide doubling, particularly the fold on the D mint mark. The metal seems to come from within the letters. But that would be much easier to determine with the requested pictures.

Greetings and Welcome.  What I see is Machine Doubling and PMD hits on the coins devices. Start with the "T" looks to have taken a hit and metal is raised up along that anomaly, the "S"doesn't look right, "ES" no notch on the lower bar, and your "S" has a line running too far inward maybe PMD, no Doubling on upper left. On the "AR" of quarter the FS-801`s DD step is to the east, your "AR" MD is to the west, same goes for the "ER", LL of DOLLAR again FS-801 to the east, yours nothing.Die Chip on Eagle's Head not a match. Sorry, I wish the at VV had a cleaner coin as an example  . So I say MD, but lets see what the group has to say as well.  Edited by Dutch-Tigger

This it is not the what is recognize as FS-801. The MM has MD clear. All Reverse photo will be nice to have to assign the variety of the coin. I will go to see if I have a clear photo for this.

@ gumperyumper:
Thank you upgrading the photos. I ask to see if you do not have the rare (only 57K strike) RDV-003 but after analyzing the photos (very nice one) is No you has the common RDV-001 variety.

Good morning, I would appreciate any information that anyone could give me to help me identify my 1964-D Quarter. I will post pic I have. If need a close up of this coin I will do my best to do so. ...I do appreciate your time.As much as I would have like to clean this coin mainly on the lower portion of the eagle's chest ( could scrub that off easily) I was told not to clean any coins ...so I did not . Again thank you for your time.     |

gumperyumper Nice pictures. I suspect Machine Doubling and PMD. Tyra111 You should start your own post. That way you would get specific answers to your questions. Edited by Sharks
