Coiness

Hello,
I would like confirmations on rather this is (or is not) an S/S.

Coiness

And how much is it worth?
Thanks!

Looks like machine doubling to me. Not worth extra money.

...i agree with the dimeman.

east and north is obvious machine doubling

it would be nice to see the bottom serif (south west bottom) lit up a little better

can you post 1 last image showing that area lit up better?

Looks like machine doubling... but something is filling the top split in the S.... Cheers, RickO

I vote strike doubling and a repunched mintmark. The bottom serif looks to be doubled with notching- a normal trumpet-tail S shouldn't look like that one...

If it is, my experience with selling these minor RPM's is that they don't bring much premium.

Hello Coiness

Welcome to The Forums

Alas I am ashamed to say that I can not answer your question as to wether or not the quarter is an S/S

I will have to see if I can find my Cherry Pickers Book and see if I can find it in there or not but I don't seem to know where the book is at this time

Looks like it might be a minor lower split serif RPM. It's hard to tell for sure. It wouldn't be worth a premium.

I will vote 'No' but otherwise it is an attractive toner.

looks like machine doubleing here as well. jmo

I agree with the masses...it looks like machine doubling.
Since you seem to be new (at least to the forums), I will expound just a little....

When looking at doubling and seeing a flat, kind of shelf-like, look to the doubling that is more indicative of the doubling being caused by the ejection and not a true double die (the hub or die being doubled).

If I mis-wrote any of the above, I am sure our knowledgable participants will correct me and lay it out a bit cleaner, but I know that when I first was seeing these, I didn't understand the difference until it was pointed out more explicitly to me.

Definitely a RPM, the bottom serif is definitely split. I don't know anything about varieties, but it doesn't sound like it's "the big one".
