2014 d Quarter

I know this has come up a few times, It usually is described as Machine doubling. I am hoping these are Doubled dies but probably not. Now Coin #2 Thanks for looking.

Hard to tell from the pics but in the second picture it looks like die deterioration doubling.

 

I think I read here on CT that on incuse devices, die doubling will look like MD does on raised devices.
I like the 2 in the date in the 2nd and 3rd pictures.

 

That little notch on the top of the 0 (first coin). looks like part of another 0.(hard to see in the pics).

 

If that was the case and the die was actually doubled wouldn't there be alot of these being discovered already? After all, it is a 2014. Just wondering, INCUSE devices are a whole different ballgame.

I have had these two coins for over a year. After always reading and seeing and looking at MD, they went into the back of my mind. This doubling is not ddd the secondary numbers are very sharp and has the notching associated with die doubling.

 

So if it is a doubling caused by the die that means the die was used 2 times before it was changed? I know it happens but doesn't anybody inspect the dies before they are put into use? Oh - it's a Government institution, nevermind!

 

Now, now, - I'm just saying, if only 2 dimes were found with doubling and dies last for 50,000 stampings??(Just a theoritical number) then where are the rest of them??

 

Well, if it was caught then it was removed from use or polished.

 

So it was a possibility for only being used 2 times resulting in 2 DD 1919 dimes - sorry, I just watched "My Cousin Vinny" last night!!

 

Here is another with the same type of doubling it is very light but you can make out the 0 inside.

 

Are you saying that we have a case for, a good coin doctor?

 

Yeah - incuse errors are newer to the so called "experts" so may take awhile to get confirmations, die variety's, and actual DD classifications!

 

according to Wexler, almost all doubling on incuse devices on these ATB quarters is going to be MD... http://doubleddie.com/144822.html.... (scroll almost to bottom of page)

 

To make these type of errors.it would have almost needed to strike twice.
They are cool to me.
Thanks

 

The thing to remember about incuse doubled die design doubling is that the size of the design element will be reduced in size compaired to a normal coin. If the incuse element is larger than normal, the cause is not from die doubling

 

They are cool !
But , there is quite a bit of movement going on in the striking chamber with an amazing amount of force behind it. Put a washer on concrete and hit it with a hammer. The washer doesnt just sit there it bounces and moves. The same thing happens in the striking chamber to the dies and the planchet. The reult of this movement is what you are seeing

 

Here is a 2015 Blue Ridge I found.
