Possible DDO & DDR 2000P MA quarter. Anyone care to identify? 1 1

[CoinPulsive PCM]

Well, I've had this one for a while, and I just listed it on eBay. I'm not marketing it on this thread so please don't push me to the BST pages. I just want an opinion of if it is truely doubled, or if it is strike doubling. Also any info on what I have would be awesome.

eBay listing

 

Thanks

It doesn't look like a doubled die. It is either machine doubling or quite possibly a strike from worn out dies.

I've seen this on a 2000P and it was strike doubling. Here's one on eBay similar to yours http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000P-Mass-Quarter-Error-Coin-Double-Struck-Both-Sides-Closeup-Pictures-/251206395678?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a7d11671e

 

...and a sold one http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-P-Massachusetts-Quarter-Motto-Doubling-/190767391162?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item2c6a9f61ba&nma=true&si=S%252BwOi7lzsDymaRYG9nGb9LF2TdU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Thanks for your guys imputs.

Its a neat "variety" either way. I'll keep the listing running and we will see what happens.

Thanks for the links.

The only difference between mine and those two is that those only show motto doubling. None say or show doubling on any other part. Mine has doubling there as well as in "LIBERTY" and slight doubling in "AMERICA" and other areas.

 

Now just for curiousity. What would be a FMV for something like mine and what is the interest factor to collectors?

I don't want to rain on your parade, but since it appears that it isn't a DDO or DDR and it appears to have some condition problems from circulation, I would put it's value at 25c.

Welcome to the forum.

Your coin has what appears to be strike doubling.

Check out this link for an explanation:

@Mark Bratcher What you found is not a DDO, it is just common strike doubling and has no value over the face value of $.25.

[RWB]

The real "value" is -30 cents (minus 30 cents) - it would cost 55 cents to mail, so one would spend the 25-cent face value plus another 30 cents just to ship it. (Excluding pesky packaging, handling, and fondling charges.) And then - on ebay sellers might add a "25% restocking fee" (although I don't know what connection there is between the coin and your stockings....).
