<p>[QUOTE=&quot;spock1k, post: 583975, member: 7043&quot;]A 2009-D District of Columbia quarter has turned out to be one of the most prominent of the centralized doubled dies seen in recent years. It boasts very strong doubling of ELL of Duke Ellington&#039;s last name, some doubling of the piano keys and panel below. All these elements were shifted diagonally to the southeast of the normal design with very wide separation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Prominent hobbyists like what they see of it so far. It has the makings of a commercial winner if a sizable number can be found. Collectors are encouraged to help the national hunt by searching through their Denver District of Columbia quarters.</p><p><br /></p><p>The hobby&#039;s first inkling of its existence came on April 1, when Lee Maples of Texas reported to the Collector&#039;s Universe Message Board&#039;s U.S. Coin Forum that he had found what he felt was a doubled-die reverse on a 2009-D District of Columbia quarter.</p><p><br /></p><p>He has found three examples in five rolls of quarters from Houston&#039;s Bank of Texas. It is this small number found so far that could prevent wide hobby acceptance of the discovery. I have assigned a listing number for the date, mint, denomination and type in the Variety Coin Register as VCR#1DDR#1.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>read more here</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&amp;ArticleId=6666" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&amp;ArticleId=6666" rel="nofollow">http://www.numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&amp;ArticleId=6666</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
