Is this a possible DD Quarter? I was Wexler's site and although its not a match I used Wexler's pics as a DD reference. also the letters IGWT are very thick.
someone made me an offer for it. and this person im sure wouldn't buy an MD coin and thats for certain.
Maybe the combination of die deterioration doubling and MD is throwing them off. There is no notching on the letters, the supposed doubling appears to be going different directions, and the doubling takes away from the letters rather than adds to them. With all that in mind, I honestly cannot see this coin being a doubled die.
This is also another quarter I got an offer for its a 1994 now look at the 2 arrows I have pointing to the T and R in TRUST that is definitely notching wouldnt You agree? MD doesnt have any nothing and could it be possible for a coin to be MD and DD?
It's definitely possible for a coin to both be a doubled die and have mechanical doubling. However, both of the coins you have posted in this thread do not show evidence of a doubled die...your latest post included. I do not see the notching you are pointing out. I am seeing mechanical doubling: flat, shelflike, no notching or split serifs. If you truly got an offer on it, I hope the person who is offering to buy it does a little more research.
No, it is not a DD IMO. The arrows pointing to the R and T do not show the notching indicating a DD. The end of the leg of the R appears to be damaged.
Here is a photo of the 1995 DDO. Red arrows point to separation lines, black arrows point to "notching". Notice the doubling is fully raised...not flat and shelf-like, and adds to the design rather than takes away from it.
every DD doesn't look like that. I seen DD on Lincoln cent resource and other sites where the letters are just thick and its a DD. Also I have to be real honest with You a few cents I sent in for arbitration came back as something totally different then what You and a few other members told me meaning You were wrong. I haven't bought that to light because that's not my style. in fact my last sale was to James Wiles. not to say that this site is not knowledgeable but sometimes I get the wrong feedback.
why should I? personally if you never commented on one of my coins I wouldn't lose any sleep. I think You have a bad attitude and you sarcastic towards a lot of the of the members.
That reminds me, whatever happened to the 1940 "doubled nostril" you sent to PCGS? What did they slab it as? Regardless, this has nothing to do with the original point of this post. I am sorry to inform you that your coin is not a doubled die. If someone really made you an offer for it, please direct them to this thread. Regardless of strength of a doubled die, my post with the picture still applies...a doubled die has notching and separation lines. Your coin does not.
Would you please link us to these. I ask this because you could be really giving back to the site. I think everyone on here is always willing to learn something new. That being said, I don't think there is any way that 1994 is a doubled die.
Sorry but that is not notching on either the T or the R. What is exhibited if die deterioration doubling. Whether folks make an offer or not does not change the fact as there are some fairly ignorant coin buyers out there. They see doubling (MDD/DDD) and all they see is doubling and dollars. Unfortunately, the only folks that pay money for this stuff are those who have no idea what they are buying and 9 out of 10 of them just do not believe you when you say it is worthless yet common machine doubline and not "die doubling".
Interesting. Ask a question then demean those that give an answer. You're going places in the numismatic world friend!
