<p>[QUOTE="P0CKETCHANGE, post: 3961335, member: 108195"]Just cut open a mint-sewn uncirculated state quarter bag [mixed 1999-2000] and the reverse of a Virginia example caught my eye. There is clear doubling on at least two of the ships towards the center of the coin that is visible without a loupe. I am usually quick to dismiss coins/posts/finds like this as simple machine doubling, but I can't seem to shake this one off. I was unable to find anything similar on Google, eBay, PCGS, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>What do you think?
