New Varieties

I was hoping someone would be able to help me out with some of these varieties I have found. I have been putting any coins aside that looked unusual to me as well as the definite varieties that I do not see listed on PCGS yet.



This is an 1881-S Morgan Dollar with what looks like a water droplet next to the chin.

The next one is a 1955 Proof Quarter which is a 100% DDR that I do not see listed.



image



image



This is a 1959 DDO Proof Quarter, however, it is different from the FS-101 which I already have graded by PCGS.



image



This one is a 1964 Proof Quarter which looks like a nice DDO.



image



This one is a 1954-S Washington Quarter that has a very odd strike almost similar to the Bugs Bunny varieties. I have 4 of these and they were so unusual that I couldn't sell them.



image



This is a 1960 Proof Franklin which I have 3 of. They are all DDR's similar to that of the 1956 Type 2.



image



image



This is a 1964-D Kennedy Half Dollar which I am convinced is a TDR. It has tripling on all of the stars and lettering.



image



image



This is a 1968-D Kennedy Half Dollar which I have not had much luck with. I was trying for the TDO and it keeps coming back from PCGS without the variety so maybe there is something I am missing with this attribution.



image



image





This is a 1936-D Buffalo Nickel which I think is a DDO but could also be strike doubling.



image



image



This is a 1935-D Buffalo Nickel which almost looks like a D over S. I have the RPM graded by PCGS which is far different from what I am seeing here.



image



image



This is a 1934 Buffalo Nickel which matches up to the 1935 DDR FS-803 that I have graded.



image



image



image





This is another 1934 Buffalo Nickel which matches up to the 1936 DDR FS-801 that I have graded.



image



image





The last one is a 1956 Proof Penny which I have two of that I just got back from PCGS. I thought they would both get the DDR attribution but unfortunately did not so I wanted some help before I sent them back and paid for another submission.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Have you tried submitting them to Wexler directly? While I could totally debunk a few of them as machine doubling or deterioration. I hope you get a few new attributions created, but I doubt they will ever pan out as major varieties.

    I just sent him an email regarding these coins so I will wait and see what he thinks. When you say "submit" are you saying that I can send the actual coins to him to check and confirm as varieties?

    Dr. Wiles also does varieties for CONECA. He charges $7 a coin and $8 shipping.

    Mechanical doubling?
