DDO quarter question

Still learning after all these years. Sorry for the bad pictures. Is this machine doubling or FS-101 DDO? Thanks for the help!

    By your photos, it sure appears to be Machine Doubling?
    Sorry :)
    However, always check for the 1964d type "C" variety or the RPM.
    There are 3 types of the Proof Reverse on the business strikes. 1956 -1964
    All of these dates, from the Philadelphia mint, have the A and B, except the C variety. The "C" type, 1964d, (Reverse of the proof) has the two letters in "States" E + S, separated. Then, the Eagle's tail feathers are in great defined detail. It's lines are very pronounced. Also, notice the Arrows have very sharp points!
    :*

    Here's a great website to check!

    Good Luck

    I see the flat shelf like look of machine doubling. Not the split serifs of a DDO.

    Damn, thought it looked like the one in the cherrypickers guide book I have.

    Thanks for the info fellas!

    look at the bottom of the R in TRUST for split serifs (always have split serifs somewhere for DoubledDie)
