Paul ZZZ Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 This appears to be a double in the E in OLE on this 2023 Edith Kanaka Quarter. It does not seem to be machine doubling. I am new to this group and happy to be part of it. To all the experts your thoughts are appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandon Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Welcome to the NGC chat board. Please post cropped photos of each full side of the coin. The closeup you posted is somewhat blurry, but the shallow secondary image on the left facing side of the "E" appears to be strike doubling, a.k.a. machine or mechanical doubling. Die doubling would be crisper and deeper and should have "notches" between the images. Compare it with these VarietyPlus photos of the 2009-D Duke Ellington DDR quarter, one of the few significant doubled dies made since the mint adopted the "single squeeze" method of die making in 1996: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 The only thing I am aware of on the Edith Kanaka'ole quarter that is of any consequence is the die clash that put the word EDITH boldly across the hair of George.
