    Hey guys can you take a look at this sms quarter i think it's a ddo or some sort of strike doubling. 1967 Obverse.jpg 1967 IGT.JPG 1967 LIBERTY.JPG 1967 RTY.jpg 1967 Reverse.jpg

    You also included a photo of the reverse. Do you think it is also a DDR?

    Looking at your photos it would appear you have a DDO. FS-25-1967-101 (in CPG). CONECA DDO-002. (See page 219 of CPG, 5th Edition, Volume II.)

    If you have not already done so you should read up on the differences between true die doubling and strike doubling. A good read is: Determining Die Doubling from Other Forms of Doubling by JT Stanton (who, along with Bill Fivaz, wrote the CPG).

    I have more photos of the reverse, thanks for pointing out a possible ddr i am not sure if it is a ddr since sms coins have proof like features. This type leads me to guessing. 1967 Reverse Quarter.JPG 1967 Reverse  Q.D..jpg

    I'm sorry folks and I really hate to say it, but the Quarter in the OP is not DDO-002.

    DDO-002 is Class I rotated Hub Doubling which goes Counter ClockWise. 2-O-I-CCW (3); FS-25-1967-101 (026.5)


    This would cause a lessor image to the "right" of the lettering in LIBERTY.

    What I see is simple machine doubling which can be quite common on these SMS coins.
