1951-D 25C DDO, anyone agree? or am I up too early on Sunday morning.

Okay i'm thinking what can I do before it's time to go out and shovel my driveway... so I looked at my Washington Quarters and found this one. Am I crazy or is this the 1951-D FS-101?

I vote no. Washington DDOs and DDRs are tough to attribute, though, because of the shallow strikes and rounded letters and devices.

 

Appreciate the feedback...The first thing I saw was the split serif on the T or Y of LIBERTY

 

I don't see doubling on IN GOD WE... does this reference help you at all?

Here the doubling is visible on those words: https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1951-d-25c-ddo-fs-101/145819

 

I love the Variety Vista site as I belong to CONECA, and they are usually on top of the pics but they probably just need an example submitted to them to photograph, so I just used the pics from the Cherry Pickers Guide this morning.

 

It look like a classic Class II and wide class VI doubling like on 1951-D DDO-003, 3-O-II-C+VI

 

thanks for the link to the photos

 

I haven't checked your attribution,but....DDO's dont need to show actual doubling.
Some are wide spread letters or lettering.
When I first looked at IGWT I was rather sure it was a ddo.

 

Could be from the master hub ..

go back to bed

 

I'm no expert, but even if I squint real hard I can't see a DDO. sorry.
