2007 Doubled Die Reverse DDR-045

Description

Designated UVC-1837 / DMR-048 by VarietyVista, the 2007 DDR-045 is a Wyoming State Quarter doubled die reverse exhibiting medium spread on the first tuft of the horse's mane directly under the saddle horn. The mane tufts on Wyoming's bucking bronco reverse are fine, flowing design elements that register hub doubling as subtle secondary outlines alongside the original hair strands. DDR-045 is the forty-fifth cataloged doubled die reverse for this date, and its UVC-1837 / DMR-048 codes distinguish it from the consecutively numbered DDR-046, which affects the same design area but originates from a different working die. Confirmed at Early Die State (Stage A), the doubled mane tuft should present clean secondary lines without the softening of later die states. Medium-spread doubling on fine design elements like mane hair requires careful examination under at least 10x magnification, as the secondary image closely parallels the primary lines. Among the Wyoming State Quarter DDR family, DDR-045 and DDR-046 form a closely related pair — both targeting the first mane tuft — while DDR-033 stands apart with its very strong spread under the saddle horn.
