Rockdude I think you need to get you some difocals if you don't already have some . I'll try to add a link here to one of the 1971 doubled dies so...
Now that's a better explanation of what could have happened to this poor ole quarter than what I came up with. Like you bonbonbelly I have also...
rockdude I know this is a DDO coin because I have owned one of them and sold it on Ebay about a year ago. These are very hard to get a good photo...
