2007 Doubled Die Reverse DDR-034

Description

Appearing on the Wyoming State Quarter's iconic bucking horse and rider — a design by Norman E. Nemeth echoing Wyoming's famous license plate imagery — DDR-034 delivers strong spread beneath the saddle horn, one of the most visually accessible locations for doubled die detection on this issue. VarietyVista cataloged the variety under UVC-1783 with die marker reference DMR-037, documenting both reverse and obverse at early die state in Stage A, with Stage B at mid-die state and Stage C at late die state unconfirmed. The strong intensity under the saddle horn makes DDR-034 one of the more detectable Wyoming Quarter doubled dies, since the saddle area provides clear geometric reference points against which the secondary impression can be measured. Wyoming, the 44th state admitted in 1890, was honored in the State Quarters program with a 2007 release from Philadelphia. The bucking horse and rider captures the state's frontier heritage, and the saddle horn — where DDR-034's doubling concentrates — sits prominently enough that collectors can screen at relatively low magnification before confirming attribution through VarietyVista die markers.
