    last coin, last roll in the box. Need some ID help on this one. No crack associated with this, so possibly a doubled die or just a nice smooth die chip? 1 2014 mt rushmore doubled die 2.jpg Thanks.

    Tough to tell Tommy. I found one almost identical, but mine also showed doubling on the bridge of the nose.

    Looks like the normal part of the original design

    Nothing on the bridge of the nose but does have about an 1 1/2" die crack north of the climber foot. It does not match up on Wexlers site either so maybe a new variety?

    It does look like that paddy, it was just so pronounced that I got a chill. Well, if not, I got a nice die crack out of it. I'm assuming what I'm looking at is the other eye brow.

    It was a part of the original design, but it's normally much less pronounced than the example I found or the one Tommy is showing.

    I see. Sort of reminds me of a birthmark.

    I'll admit that my expertise is in Lincoln Cents. I do know that the coin I posted shows Class 9 doubling on the bridge of the nose, but that area Paddy pointed out may be stronger due to strike, age of the die, or hubbing of the die with some coins.

    Tommy, Can I piggyback off your thread and resurrect it? I found this Mt. Rushmore the other day. It's so damn hard to spot anomalies from the original design on these State and National Park quarters! With the help of your thread and @paddyman98 's input, I think I found a winner. If I can see it with my naked eye, it's gotta be a winner for me. ;) Can you spot it?

    Tommyc just quoting a wise man that once told me if you're not sure to send it to Wexler that was the best advice you ever gave me.USMC60

    Hello Tommyc what I can tell from your photo it looks normal to me. I know from past experience doubling occurs on the top bridge of the nose. I hope this photo will help.:blackalien: ETMVP-6.jpg

    Tommyc the coin I'm showing you is I believe a 2013-p 25c SD WDDR-010-A by Wexler's identification, I also have the stage B. just like TJ said there so hard to identify sometimes on these territorial quarters.:happy:

    Not a problem.

    When I posted that photo I had nothing in hand to compare it with and just jumped the gun. I did recently find a real doubled die on this one, just not had the time to identify/attribute it yet. Thanks.

    Tommy just a heads up. I personally have not found an easy way to identify these Mount Rushmore's. Even the way I suggested to you for the homesteads I basically do the same for these Rushmore's, you'll find that there is so many positions on the bridge of the nose, the shapes are not that hard to identify but the positioning on the bridge of the nose I found to be the hardest. If you come up with an easier way please let me know. I know you will not find it easy when you start examining yours.:D:blackalien:
