2007 Doubled Die Reverse DDR-012

Description

Within the Wyoming State Quarter's variety census, DDR-012 documents a strong spread around the outside of the saddle horn on the bucking horse and rider that defines the reverse design — a distinctly Western motif drawn from Wyoming's cowboy heritage. Cataloged by VarietyVista as UVC-1707 (DMR-014), the variety concentrates its doubling on the saddle horn, where the curved profile registers hub displacement effectively. The saddle horn has proven particularly productive for doubled die varieties on the Wyoming Quarter, as its raised, rounded form provides a clear silhouette against which even moderate spread creates a detectable secondary contour. Strong doubling around the outside edge means the displacement expands the horn's profile outward, making it appear slightly larger or doubled along its outer curve. The 2007 Wyoming Quarter was struck at Philadelphia and Denver as part of the State Quarter program, and the strong classification indicates doubling visible under moderate magnification. Collectors familiar with Wyoming Quarter saddle horn varieties should compare DDR-012's strong outside spread against other DDRs for this design.
