1955 Washington Quarter D mint mark

#1 Unread post by Rob Valero »

Hi guys I hope you're well, I've had a coin for many years and I would like to get it graded, but before get some advice. Please could you let me know if this coin is valuable and if it is worth to grade? Any advice would be appreciated. It is a 1955 silver Washington quarter in very good condition with D mint mark but also has double punch in the date and the wings of the eagle. Please see attached
thanks a lot
Robert

Welcome

What you're seeing is referred to as "Mechanical Doubling".

No, I would not spend the money to certified this coin.
