2007 (S) Proof Wyoming Silver State Quarter - Doubled Die Reverse DDR-003

Description

DDR-003, a reverse doubled die on the 2007-S Wyoming State Quarter, exhibits medium spread on the first tuft of mane under the saddle horn — a highly specific diagnostic that leverages the bucking bronco design unique to Wyoming's contribution to the 50 State Quarters Program (1999-2008). The Wyoming quarter reverse depicts a cowboy on a bucking horse, inspired by the state's Bucking Horse and Rider symbol, and the detailed horse anatomy provides organic design elements particularly sensitive to hub doubling detection. VarietyVista catalogs this under UVC-1835 and DMR-005, documenting three die stages: Stage A at early die state, Stage B at mid die state (unconfirmed), and Stage C at late die state (unconfirmed). The silver proof designation places DDR-003 within the premium Silver Proof Set production at San Francisco, where 90% silver planchets were used for a limited proof run alongside the more numerous clad proof issues. Medium spread on the mane tuft should be visible under moderate magnification, with the organic hair strands providing clear evidence of secondary impression displacement. The saddle horn serves as a stable reference point against which the mane displacement can be measured, as the horn's rigid shape should show less doubling effect than the softer organic mane detail near the rotation or displacement center.
