Die Reverse #3
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#3/DDR#3: On our third Minnesota Doubled Die, the third full tree to the right of the state outline is again the focal point, this time with wide separation of the upper branches as they overlap on the right in a more classic appearance to the doubling. Markers: Two stages as shown (sequence of production yet to be determined). Submitted by: Submitted independently by Steve Dimitriadis and Colleen Prebish July 19, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-003, Wexler: WDDR-003, Crawford: DDR-003 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling. Comments: 08/09/06 - Mike Chomicki found five examples saying: "I have searched 50+ rolls of BU Minnesota P Mint Qtrs acquired in NW New Jersey - and have found approx 5 - DDR# 3 examples." |

25c MN MF Doubled
Die Reverse #4
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#4/DDR#4: Like DDR#1 and #2 this one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin in the field. However, it involves a portion of the tree a bit higher than the first two varieties as framed in our third image above. Markers: The obverse exhibits die cracks through JF and WC designer's initials. A light depression runs along the base of WC. Reverse markers are noted on the tops of all trees which exhibit "trails" extending at a slight angle to the northeast. This is a diagnostic that has been noted on a number of other recent doubled dies and may or may not be related to the doubling. Found in a government issue Mint Set with satin or matte finish. Submitted by: Submitted by Jennifer Snyder August 1, 2006. A number of specimens reported by Gary Macedo in boxes delivered by the Mint on June 5, 2005. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-004, Wexler: WDDR-004, Crawford: DDR-004 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling. |

Die Reverse #5
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#5/DDR#5: Like DDR#1, #2 and #4 this one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin. This time the "Extra Tree" is shifted to the southeast with most of the doubling intermingled with and between the lower portion of the 3rd tree and rock to the right except for the teardrop shaped element that is floating free above. It will take some time to see most of the doubling of this variety but if you compare the photos of this one with photos of the earlier dies which are clear of the doubling in this lower region you will eventually pick up on it. Markers: The obverse exhibits die cracks through JF and WC designer's initials; a die chip has developed within the W of WC. Reverse markers are numerous with perhaps the subdued die scratches through the 2 of the date the most prominent. Submitted by: Submitted by Richard Helbig July 26, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-005, Wexler: WDDR-005, Crawford: DDR-005 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling. |

Die Reverse #6
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#6/DDR#6: Like DDR#1, #2, #4 and #5, this one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin. However in this case for the first time the doubling is shifted predominantly to the left of the 3rd tree, down to the southwest. It is most easily seen as our familiar teardrop shape that is attached to a rock while some other slight doubling can be seen below. Faint traces of the highest areas of relief that are normally positioned above the teardrop shaped element on the full tree are evident on this die stage but may be worn off on later stages. Markers: The reverse exhibits numerous subdued die scratches perhaps most prominent through the date. Submitted by: Submitted by Colleen Prebish July 27, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-006, Wexler: WDDR-006, Crawford: DDR-006 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling. |

BS Doubled Die Reverse
#7
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#7/DDR#7 : Very similar to DDR#1 and #2, this one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin. It appears almost identical to DDR#1 but is further to the east positioned slightly higher than the "extra tree" found on DDR#2. Markers: The reverse exhibits numerous subdued die scratches perhaps most prominent through EPU; the obverse of the coin was heavily damaged by a coin wrapping machine and prevented a complete examination but a long die crack from the "V" of Washington's bust to the top of the Q of QUARTER was noted. Submitted by: Submitted by Richard Helbig July 25, 2006. Floyd J. Howze submitted a stage mated to an obverse w/o the base of bust die crack described for the Helbig specimen.

25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse
#8
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#8/DDR#8 : This one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin. While similar to DDR#4 it is not floating free in the field but partially tucked in next to the third full tree to the right of the state outline.. Markers: The reverse exhibits numerous subdued die scratches; none particularly distinctive, a vertical die crack is found at the very end of the stand of evergreens to the right; the obverse displays numerous die scratches with those passing through IGWT and UNITED the most distinctive. Submitted by: Submitted by Richard Helbig July 25, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-008, Wexler: WDDR-008, Crawford: DDR-008 Cause: Titled Hub Doubling |
2005-P 25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #9
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#9/DDR#9: This one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin. An area of the primary tree is snuggled close to the right side of the tree down lower than in DDR#8. While it appears almost attached, under high magnification we can see that it is actually 90% separated from the main tree with just a slight attachment at its lower extremity. Markers: The reverse exhibits numerous subdued die scratches; none particularly distinctive. Area of PLURIBUS shot. The obverse shows many die scratches with the most distinctive running through LIBERTY. Submitted by: Submitted by Dave Serbonich August 5, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-009, Wexler: WDDR-009, Crawford: DDR-009 Cause: Titled Hub Doubling |
2005-P 25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #10 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#10/DDR#10 : This one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin directly to the east between the tree and rock. Markers: The reverse has been struck through Mint grease coving much of the design and field areas in-between making this a poor specimen for examination from which to record markers. In fact, other doubling may exist that we cannot see on this specimen in the areas subdued or missing design details due to the strike-through. The obverse is also covered with scattered areas affected by the strike-through and is a poor example for recording markers, however several die chips can be found on the base of bust. A very light die crack runs through the die chips shown on the left side of the photo and extends out through the "V" of Washington's bust into the field. Submitted by: Submitted by Ken Olson of Minnesota found 35 August 11, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-010, Wexler: WDDR-010, Crawford: DDR-010 Cause: Titled Hub Doubling |
2005-P 25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #11
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#11/DDR#11: This one exhibits a "snowball" to the east of the primary tree along with some faint doubling to the north of the "ball." Exactly what this represents is in need of more study but it is highly suspected to be a portion of the tree to its left. Markers: The reverse displays many markers including several diagonal die scratches found on either side of the primary tree. The obverse exhibits a long die crack along the base of bust exiting through the "V" into the field. Submitted by: Submitted by Richard Milauskas August 08, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-011, Wexler: WDDR-011, Crawford: DDR-011 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling |
2005-P 25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #12 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#12/DDR#12: Doubling is seen as high points from the third full evergreen tree to the right of the state outline floating free in the field. Markers: The reverse exhibits numerous subdued die scratches; none particularly distinctive. We show the light die scratches through the area of the 5 of date. The obverse exhibits a die crack along the base of bust exiting through the "V" into the field. A crack through JF to the W designer's initials at base of bust. A later die state sent in by George Wacha on August 21, 2006 shows the obverse die crack through the designer's initials extended a bit further west. Submitted by: Submitted by Colleen Prebish and Richard Helbig August 15, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-012, Wexler: WDDR-012, Crawford: DDR-012 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling |

25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #13 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#13/DDR#13: Doubling is seen as high points from the third full evergreen tree to the right of the state outline floating free in the field. Markers: The reverse exhibits a few subdued die scratches; none particularly distinctive. A number of small die chips exist in the field below the SW corner of the state outline. The obverse exhibits a die crack along the base of bust exiting through the "V" into the field. A crack through JF to the W designer's initials at base of bust. Submitted by: Submitted by Colleen Prebish and Richard Helbig August 15, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-013, Wexler: WDDR-013, Crawford: DDR-013 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling |

25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #14
Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#14/DDR#14: Doubling is seen one of the high points from the third full evergreen tree to the right of the state outline up to the NE and as a "hook" above. The "hook" is stronger on the earlier die state. Markers: None significant on the early die state beyond those shown in the first image in the field right of the doubling.. On the mid stage, the reverse exhibits a very distinctive die dent to the SW of the 1 of 1858. The obverse on the mid stage exhibits a die crack along the base of bust that branches off and exits down toward the R of QUARTER and through the "V" of bust into the field. There is also a crack through JF to the W designer's initials at base of bust. Submitted by: Early die state specimen submitted by Robert H. Neff August 10, 2006. Submitted in mid die state by Colleen Prebish and Richard Helbig August 15, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-014, Wexler: WDDR-014, Crawford: DDR-014 Cause: Tilted Hub Doubling |

BS Doubled Die Reverse #17 \ Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#17/DDR#17: This one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin. An area of the primary tree is snuggled close to the right side of the tree similar to DDR#9 and #13 but distinctly different. While it appears almost attached, under high magnification we can see that it is actually 90% separated from the main tree with just a slight attachment at the top. Markers: Obverse - A die crack connects the designers' initials. Die flow lines upward from the IN of IGWT; a die chip above the right leg of the N. Reverse - a light die gouge runs through the upper E of MINNESOTA. Submitted by: David Serbonich August 18, 2006.

2005-P 25c MN BS Doubled Die Reverse #30 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#30/DDR#30: This one displays a teardrop shaped area of the primary tree to the right. It is similar to several others but the positioning is higher than any listed previously. There are also a couple traces of what is probably doubling. Markers: Obverse - Many die scratches, flow lines and tiny die chips with perhaps the most notable in the area of the date.

Doubled Die Reverse #32 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#32/DDR#32: This one displays an extra branch on the lower right of the primary tree. Other examples of a later die state coin that look similar may be the same as this one but they are not attributable at the time due to a proliferation of die scrapes making it impossible to distinguish the possible doubling from the die scrapes. Markers: Obverse - Die scratches cover the obverse; those running through STA of STATES are the most recognizable . Reverse -- Here again die scratches are numerous; the ones through TA of MINNESOTA are the most recognizable. Submitted by: Donald Helms August 28, 2006.

Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#55/DDR#54: Shows doubling on right side of primary tree as pointed out by the arrows. Markers: Obverse - There are a few very small die scratches within the area of IN GOD WE TRUST. Reverse: One of the pieces examined displayed strong strike doubling on MINNESOTA, 1858 and on portions of LAND OF 10,000 LAKES. Because the characters of LAND OF 10,000 LAKES are incuse, the strike doubling takes on the interesting effect seen on hub doubling with split serifs, etc., however we note here for clarity that it is NOT a part of the hub doubling. The strike doubling on this variety may vary from coin to coin or be nonexistent on others. It is not a reliable marker. Found in Mint Set Submitted by: James Wiles September 15, 2006.

2005-S 25c MN Clad PF Doubled Die Reverse
#1 Note: Image of this variety by John Wexler Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#1/DDR#01: This one involves a portion of the third full tree to the right of the state outline with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin out in the field close to the tree. Markers: Obverse - None significant. Reverse - None significant. Clad Proof Submitted by: Brett Yollis August 28, 2006.

2005-S 25c MN Clad PF Doubled Die Reverse #2 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#2/DDR#02: This one involves a portion of the primary tree with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin snuggled in against the tree. There is also a trace of doubling of the rock to the right of the primary tree to the north. Markers: Obverse - None significant. Reverse - None significant.

2005-S 25c MN Clad PF Doubled Die Reverse #3 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#3/DDR#03: This one involves a portion of the primary tree with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin snuggled in against the tree very low. Markers: Obverse - None significant. Reverse - The reverse designs of this variety were frosted in a very sloppy, lazy manner with no attention paid to staying out of the fields or covering all areas of design. For example, the field area between the primary tree and the rock to the right is frosted instead of "mirror-like;" the evergreen trees are frosted in an inverted "V" pattern with no attention to making sure the outer tips of the branches are frosted and no attention paid to maintaining the mirror fields in-between those branches. Compare to the meticulous frost on DDR#2. Clad Proof Submitted by: Kevin Zaletel September 6, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-004, Wexler: WDDR-004, Crawford: DDR-004.

2005-S 25c MN Silver PF
Doubled Die Reverse #4 Variety Coin Register Number: VCR#4/DDR#04: This one involves a portion of the primary tree with the doubling fully displaced from its point of origin far over to the right above the rock. This is the teardrop shaped area that seems as though it was "draped" with frost as not only is it frosted but so is the field area below it. Markers: Obverse - None significant. Reverse - Like we see on DDR#3, the reverse designs of this variety were frosted in a very sloppy, lazy manner with no attention paid to staying out of the fields or covering all areas of design. For example, the field area between the primary tree and the rock to the right is frosted instead of "mirror-like;" the evergreen trees are frosted in an inverted "V" pattern with no attention to making sure the outer tips of the branches are frosted and no attention paid to maintaining the mirror fields in-between those branches. Compare to the near meticulous frost on DDR#2. Silver Proof Submitted by: Dennis Hougard Sept 8, 2006. Cross References: CPG: Not Known, CONECA: DDR-004, Wexler: WDDR-004, Crawford: DDR-004.

What About Those Proof Minnesota Quarters?
At the time of this writing we have reports
of 11 different 2005 Minnesota "Extra Tree" doubled dies on the Philadelphia issue
and one on the Denver issue (this page will be updated to show all these varieties
next Wednesday)! Philadelphia and Denver have their own independent die
shops so for them both to have created these doubled dies means that whatever
caused the tilt and slippage in the die/hub setup during the hubbing is inherent
to the current process and not just to one particular Mint. It suggests
that what we see here on these quarters is most probably not just a quirk in
time but an effect that has been occurring all along to a greater or lesser
degree on other issues with doubling resulting where the geometry of the design
allows. As more folks learn of our first Denver issue we'll probably
receive more reports on them too!
Many folks are saving State quarters by the rolls and even
bags, and if they aren't, plenty of coin shops and speculators are well-stocked
with them. This lends the coins well to treasure hunt stories due to their availability.
This availability has allowed collectors to find new varieties fast enough to be reported while the story is
still hot and allows the
numismatic press to revisit the same basic story week after week with a fresh slant each time
making it an even hotter news item as it continues to unfold. |
How The Minnesota "Extra Tree" The area of doubling on all varieties reported thus far represents the virtual dead center of the coin’s design. This is an important key their attribution because specialists believe they are the result of tilted hubs that were seated into proper position during hubbing. Tilted Hub Doubling restricted to such a small area of design within the center region of the die is possible due to the result of either of two related scenarios. 1) The hub is backed off after the initial kiss of the hub into a tilted die blank and is then reset properly and hubbed again. 2) The hub and die blank are titled in relation to each other and are then forced to seat into proper position by hubbing pressure within a split second after the initial kiss of the hub into the tip of the die blank. The face of a die blank (referred to as a “die block” in Mint jargon) is machined with a slightly conical configuration to aid in the flow of metal during hubbing. This would indicate that the initial kiss of a hub into a die blank would be restricted to this centralized area before continuing on to fill out the rest of the design. During this process the tip of a titled die blank would be positioned slightly off location away from the center of the hub into a different area of design than intended and thus the misplaced area of doubling on the affected die. We have very similar effects known on several Canadian 1974 Winnipeg Centennial nickel dollars where all the doubling is restricted to the center of the die. In fact, it is ironic that the 1974 Winnipeg dollar DDR#1 and DDR#2 share the exact same design element displaced in two slightly different locations in a like manner to what we see here on our Minnesota quarter DDR#1 and DDR#2! (See more on them here: Canada1974DollarVars). Former Royal Canadian Mint Master Engraver, Walter Ott attributed the first one (the only one he saw first-hand) as being created in the manner described above indicating that the doubling could have been created via either of the two scenarios noted here. With these Minnesota quarters we are well into the single-squeeze hubbing era (which was not the case with the Canada varieties in 1974) so researchers feel that the doubling would have most likely occurred when a tilted hub/die seated into proper position within the single squeeze of the hub. As the name implies, the single-squeeze hubbing procedure, impresses a complete design into a die with just one pass of the hub.
