2007 (S) Proof Wyoming State Quarter - Doubled Die Reverse DDR-006

Description

DDR-006, a reverse doubled die on the 2007-S Wyoming State Quarter, exhibits medium spread on the first tuft of mane under the saddle horn — sharing the same diagnostic location as DDR-003 but originating from a distinct die identified by VarietyVista as UVC-1885 and DMR-008. Three die stages are documented: Stage A at early die state with both reverse and obverse, Stage B at mid die state (unconfirmed), and Stage C at late die state (unconfirmed). The clad proof designation distinguishes this from DDR-003's silver proof origin, placing DDR-006 within the standard Proof Set production at San Francisco where copper-nickel clad planchets were used. The Wyoming State Quarter's bucking bronco design, featuring a cowboy astride a bucking horse with the state name and nickname "The Equality State" inscribed, provides the equine mane detail that serves as the diagnostic focus for this variety. Medium spread on the mane tuft under the saddle horn requires the same examination approach as DDR-003 — moderate magnification directed at the organic hair strands near the saddle area, looking for clearly displaced secondary impressions of the fine mane detail. The distinct UVC and DMR numbers confirm DDR-006 as an independent hub doubling event from a separate die, not a different die state of DDR-003. Collectors interested in Wyoming State Quarter varieties should examine both clad and silver proof examples, as documented DDRs span both compositions.
