    Here are two 1964-D quaters that have both different thickness of the D and the positioning is different, the thicker one is higher. Can someone tell me which is the norm, and which is the error?

    None are errors, the mint mark placement on coins

    None are errors, the mint mark placement on coins during this era can and are all over the place. The first one shows common mechanical/machine type doubling and that is normal.
    Mint marks were place (punched) into working dies by hand then and it took hundreds if not thousands of dies to run a series.
    The mintmark placement can and does vary all over the place.

    That second one kind of looks like a RPM to me.
