1944 (S) Washington Quarter - Variety WMDO-001

Description

1944-S WMDO-001 is a master die doubled obverse on the 1944-S Washington quarter, cataloged by the Wexler team. A strong spread to the north appears on the E of WE, the lower ear and the underside of the nose. Because the doubling sits in the master die, Wexler says the markers differ on every working die, obverse and reverse. For the same reason, every quarter dated 1944, from all three mints, carries this doubling. John A. Wexler submitted it. CONECA lists it as MD-1-O-IV+VII.

Cross References

• CONECA: MD-1-O-IV+VII Comments: Since this doubling traces all the way back to the master die, all 1944 dated quarters from all three Mints will show this doubling. Consequently there should be no premium value added to these quarters if they just display the master die doubling.; Wexler Variety ID: 1944-S 25¢ WMDO-001
