Hi, I am looking for flat field doubling quarters for the period from 1950 till 1974 inclusive.
Any photos will be well appreciate or willing to sell.
Thanks, Silvio
PS: The deffinition for Flat field doubling
This coin exhibits dual images as a result of having its machine doubled image flattened by the second strike of a proof coin. This is a very common phenomenon on proof coins from 1950-1974.

Here is a newly graded toned 1967 SMS Quarter.
"In God We Trust" on this quarter appears to have flat field doubling that is very pronounced.
Thans Sanction. I forgot to ask to all the permission to have the photos and use under the provider name in my next book.

@ Sanction
Fascinating coin. Sorry I do not recall well who told me about combination. I remember firs Herb brink me this FFD as per his assigment. Me I recall to told him : OK to long name , this it is Gost Doubling. Then I find is a strange kind.
You has what who told me about: Herb, Ken or Mike diamond that on double strike this could be toghether with MD. First strike MD then second FFD (flat field doubling)
This you has. IGWT you has NGORUST as MD and D W E flat field doubling.
Excelent example.
I will ask Mike if want to wroote a new article about your coin.

PS: This it is the most rare form of doubling in high denominations.
