After years of accumulating coins, I finally decided to start looking at them a few months ago. Started reading this and other websites till I got an "idea"...but yes, I"m pretty much a newbie One of the quarters from the American parks was a Kisatchie Louisiana Quarter. I think it has doubling in "in God we trust" the P mintmark, "Quarter Dollar" and I see no doubling in Washington's ear and I see no convincing doubling in Liberty. I don't know about grading, but I see a lot of details in the coin, particularly the bird's feathers...may be high grade. Appreciate any input.
It is definitely not a high grade. Your close-ups are too blurry. I see evidence of die deterioration which could account for some of the (perceived) doubling. Chris
okay this is the b est i could get, sorry...these are using daylight (the original ones i took using a close-by fluorescent light ) ..more contrast now <crossing my fingers>
Do you see all those parallel striations pointing toward the rim? Those are the result of die deterioration and the subsequent doubling. Chris
ohhhhh thank you Chris! I'm learning so much! i didn't see those lines until i took the pic.... this is so useful to learn! ty so much! big hug! I don't want to go around bragging about a DDO that is not LOL ty so much again!
I have 2 state quarters that I believe is double die can some plz give me a professional opinion....cause they are for sell.... ITS THE PERYY"S VICTORY N THE KISATCHIE STATE QUATRERS...
