Description

1972-S Quarter, PR68
Double Struck on a Dime
Double Denomination

1972-S Washington Quarter -- Double Struck on a Dime, Double Denomination -- PR68 NGC. A clad Roosevelt dime was inadvertently fed between proof Washington quarter dies, and struck twice, as usual for proofs. The dime undertype is most evident near 4:30 on the obverse border, where NITED STA shows. The dime was struck aligned with the quarter collar die at 4:30. The coin has an out-of-round appearance, and shows red color along the obverse border from 7 o'clock to 1 o'clock, where the copper clad layer was pushed out of the edge and struck along the obverse rim. Evidence of the double strike from quarter dies shows on GOD and TRUST. The mintmark is bold, as is the 72 in the date. The 19 is partial and distorted.
