Can you help with this 1964D Quarter type, value ? 0

[lcourtney123]

I have 5 1964D quarter. One DD Reverse? (cleared up its not) it also has a frosty look. Stands out next to the rest in real time. Weighs 6.27 Some Pix were taken with phone (clearer ones)

Some with scope to get a closer view (Only To show DD) The scope pictures are yellow toned. Sorry guys/gals I am really trying to figure out why this scope is making the pix yellow. I have tilted the phone to show you the difference in appearance in one of the pictures (phone pix) Bottom left quarter & top left in group pix.

 I been learning about the transitional year with quarters.

Would a collector encapsulate this coin?

Do you believe a quarter collector would like something like this?

Would it have value?

Thanks everyone don't beat me up to bad I am going to get rid of silver to try to get the coins I would like to have.

Should of put D by the coin year

This is mechanical doubling, not a doubled die.  This would not be worth the cost of certification.

Greetings!

The coin in your magnified photos was not struck from a doubled die. What you see is called "machine doubling" or "mechanical doubling. This is caused by the planchet not properly seating between the dies at the instant the coin is struck. It is very common and has no added value.

All of the quarters are ordinary 1964 pieces. They are not "transitional" in any sense of the word and are never called that by coin collectors. Each quarter contains about $4.70 in silver value. They have no added collector premium and sending any to be independently graded would be a total waste of $30 to $40 in fees and postage.

Thanks for the information. Yes I went back and clearly forgot the difference between DD and machine doubling. Thanks for the push to go read again. This happens a lot with me

  Another name for it is "strike doubling". The secondary image has much lower relief than the primary image.  On a doubled die, which is caused by the die itself receiving blows from the die-making "hub" in different positions, both images are at about the same level, as on this "Redbook" variety 1972 doubled die cent:

  You refer to the coins as "1964", but the only one whose reverse you show is a 1964-D.  Were you aware of this? To collectors, coins from different mints are completely different issues as much as different dates are!  Mint mark locations for the various coin series are just one part of the basic information you must have before you even think about searching for a die varieties! (Known varieties are listed by date and mint mark.)  Please get and study a recent edition of the "Redbook" before asking questions like these.  At least check NGC VarietyPlus (NGC home page under the "Resources" tab) before asking us to determine if you have some unusual die variety.  The varieties recognized by NGC for 1964 and 1964-D quarters are at Washington Quarters (1932-1998) | VarietyPlus® | NGC (ngccoin.com).

Look again the first group picture it is the top left coin. The second group picture it is the bottom left coin. The single pictures are the obverse and reverse of the exact coin.

Sorry for the confusion.

By "transitional year" I assume you mean that 1964 was the last year silver planchets were used for quarters, and after that it was a Cu-Ni planchet.

The big "transitional error" quarters people look for is a 1965 quarter struck on the previous years Ag planchet, but you have better odds hitting the Powerball.  This can be checked by simply looking at the edge, and if you see a copper color in the middle it's a normal 1965 Cu-Ni planchet which had a solid copper core.

For 1964 there really isn't any extra value simply because it was the last year an Ag planchet was used for quarters.  For help with identifying typical errors see reference sites like: error-ref.com, varietyvista.com, and doubleddie.com.

And for 1964 50C errors see the following article, which also has some approximate values.  Also, it you are interested in errors the attached book on error values is extremely useful.

@lcourtney123You are much better off posting one coin per topic for discussion per the pinned topic, after you have checked the references provided and still think you may have some with errors.  It gets very confusing posting multiple coins in a single thread, unless its a related add-on.

There is a transitional or type C reverse for 1964 D, I assume this is what you are referencing?

None of the quarters are from doubled dies.
