Not sure if this is one of very few from what I’ve seen online and read about, but would truly appreciate anyone’s help letting me know more about this coin.
Thanks

I believe that better pictures are needed, especially of the R in trust, before we can make an observation.
I am assuming that you are speaking of the doubled die obverse, FS-101.God bless all who believe in him. Do unto others what you expect to be done to you. Dubbed a "Committee Secret Agent" by @mr1931S on 7/23/24. Founding member of CU Anti-Troll League since 9/24/24.

I don't like assuming. Everything I see in the pictures looks like a completely normal 1961 proof quarter. If @CoinRaz24 has a question, They should ask it without making people guess.
So I’m very new to the entire collecting world. Any and all help would be appreciated!
It seems like you're not reading our responses, so how could we possibly help you, even if we knew what you wanted?
I’ll upload more pictures. I’m waiting for a microscope to arrive.
Probably just a magnifying glass or a loupe would do better than a microscope would. Taking it out of the plastic may help as well.
If you do decide to use a microscope, make sure to take out the card with the photo on it instead of taking photos of the screen, as it produces grainy and unusable photos.

I don’t want to remove it from original packaging in case it is something
Here are more picture hope it helps
I'm going to go with "no"
First, a DD is not an error, it is a variety, big difference.
Also I do not see DD anywhere on that quarter.
It's subtle in that variety. Look at the variety vista photos. There is some thickening on the motto in the variety. Honestly, none of these photos are good enough to see it if it were there.
It's not in its original package now, so the rest of that comment is academic.
Based on your pictures, your coin is absolutely normal. Do YOU see something in your pictures? If you do, you should point it out exactly, without making people guess. If you don't, then you shouldn't be surprised that nobody else does either.
From what pictures we have, I actually would say that it looks like FS-101, but not conclusively.
Here is an actual FS-101 from coin facts. Notice the thickening on the lower right serif of the R in trust.

The thick lettering and offset of the 1961? As I mentioned before I am new and learning all advise of welcomed.
I don't see any thick lettering or offset of the 1961 in the pictures you have posted. I'm not saying you're wrong about the coin in hand. But we can only comment about what we can see in the pictures.
Again, do YOU see thick lettering or offset in the pictures you have posted? If so, please point it out. For example, edit one of your pictures to add little arrows pointing at what you would like us to comment on.
