<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pickin and Grinin, post: 4600431, member: 73995&quot;]No, I don&#039;t see any doubling. Because when a coin gets circulated to the point that yours is. The contact and circulation destroys the doubling that it may have once had. Below is a 1964 silver quarter FS-801 DDR. This so that you can see what a actual Doubled Die looks like.</p><p><a href="http://varietyvista.com/09b%20WQ%20Vol%202/DDR%20Detail%20Pages/1964PDDR001.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietyvista.com/09b%20WQ%20Vol%202/DDR%20Detail%20Pages/1964PDDR001.htm" rel="nofollow">http://varietyvista.com/09b WQ Vol 2/DDR Detail Pages/1964PDDR001.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Lets use this coin as sold example. This coin was graded and attributed by PCGS.</p><p><a href="https://coins.ha.com/itm/washington-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1964-25c-doubled-die-reverse-fs-801-ms64-pcgs-0246-pcgs-population-3-0-ngc-census-0-0-mintage-560-300-032/a/131811-23567.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://coins.ha.com/itm/washington-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1964-25c-doubled-die-reverse-fs-801-ms64-pcgs-0246-pcgs-population-3-0-ngc-census-0-0-mintage-560-300-032/a/131811-23567.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515" rel="nofollow">https://coins.ha.com/itm/washington-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1964-25c-doubled-die-reverse-fs-801-ms64-pcgs-0246-pcgs-population-3-0-ngc-census-0-0-mintage-560-300-032/a/131811-23567.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515</a></p><p>It sold for $288 in a grade of MS64</p><p>MS stands for Mint State. </p><p>Your quarter is circulated and probably at best a f12 or f15. If you had the same coin FS-801 in the grade of F12 or F15 it would be valued at around $15.</p><p>In order to sell the coin you would have to get it certified which would cost you around 30-40 dollars. You would actually take a loss.</p><p>There is a lot that goes into variety&#039;s, DDO&#039;s and DDR&#039;s RPM&#039;s. It takes time to learn what to look for and what to do when you find a coin that is one.</p><p>One is grading. Most coins when they get to XF are unable to be attributed because of wear/circulation the fattening and distortion of the devices, damage etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>Stick around and read learn the game of numismatics and soon you will find yourself cherry picking worthy coins for attribution.</p><p>Good luck Steve.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
