2005 (P) Minnesota State Quarter - Doubled Die Reverse DDR-021

Description

2005-P MN DDR-021 is a doubled die reverse on the 2005-P Minnesota state quarter, cataloged by VarietyVista. The strong spread forms part of the third full tree right of the state outline. It is wholly displaced from its point of origin and sits in the open field near the tree. VarietyVista also gives it as 21-R-VIII, and its chart numbers are UVC-1475 and DMR-023. On Stage A the obverse and reverse are both in an early die state (EDS). On Stage B the reverse is in a middle die state (MDS), and a die crack crosses the base of the bust, also MDS. On Stage C the reverse has reached a late middle die state (LMDS), and a die chip appears in the lower part of the B in LIBERTY, also LMDS. Stage D, the late die state, is unconfirmed. Reported to VarietyVista by Richard Helbig.
