No need to apologize paddyman. Trial and error.. I'm still learning what to look for.
I'm not talking about something like this that's completely obvious (looks like the mint worker got plastered before work).
I don't think that I do, but I would appreciate any helpful advice that I can get from anyone who is more experienced and knowledgeable of the...
DD or no? If I'm looking at this right, there is clear separation on the Y in LIBERTY and on the ST in TRUST. Maybe on other characters too, but...
I'm still having some trouble identifying "Notches", especially on coins that display heavier wear (looks blurry under magnification). Could...
Thanks guys.

Oh geez.. I forgot to post the pictures :banghead::banghead:
Hey guys, I hope that everyone is having a great morning. I've never bothered asking anything about coins like this because I always assumed that...
Lol, it is indeed very difficult with really small doubling. The more you zoom in, the more your eyes hurt. Then with other coins, the clearer it...
@rick: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that the first one is legit. It's very pronounced compared to the others. I wish my microscope could zoom in just a...

The only other OR quarters that I have to compare to are three that I sat aside to look at closer. Again, these are somewhat blurry due to wear on...
I hardly ever stumble across S mint coins, it's very seldom. I've found 3 proofs so far and a little bitty bag of S mint business strike coins...
Lol! That is so true, I seldom ever see any mistakes on Denver mint coins. I guess it's good that the P mint appreciates their brews, because I...
Lol, don't feel bad Ty. Before I got a microscope, I was strictly (like a religion) using a loupe and swore on everything that I could see every...
Thanks Rick, you've been a big help in my searches. I have another coin (Ozark Riverways) that I would like your opinion on, but I would...
I'm on a roll with Harper's Ferry quarters :beaver: (Not the greatest, but it still counts)
Maybe it is doubled.. I can't say for sure. I use a pretty good microscope and it still makes me want to run, lol. "Extra Thickness" and "Very...
"Extra moderate thickness". That's how the obverse doubling for the 2017-P Penny is described on Wexler's. This is another one that confuses me,...
