Description
1942 WDDR-004 is a doubled die reverse on the 1942 Washington quarter, cataloged by the Wexler team. An extremely strong clockwise (CW) spread appears on the eagle's talons, the leaves and branches, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, QUARTER DOLLAR and E PLURIBUS UNUM. On the obverse, a heavy scratch follows the rim over the RT of LIBERTY. On the reverse, a gouge (dot) lies between the lower parts of the I and T in UNITED. Jim Lafferty submitted the variety. CONECA lists it as 5-R-I, and its Cherrypickers number is FS-25-1942-802 (014.3). Wexler includes it in its "Best Of" varieties.
