2015 Doubled Die Reverse DDR-041

Description

Forty-first in the DDR catalog for the 2015 Homestead National Monument of America Quarter, this Philadelphia Mint variety presents very strong spread with light hubbing directed North, creating an extra partial water pump in window L3 of the Daniel Freeman homestead cabin on the reverse. Cataloged by VarietyVista as UVC-2140 and DMR-042, three die stages have been documented, tracing progression from early through late die state. The Homestead Quarter belongs to the America the Beautiful series, which ran from 2010 through 2021 featuring national parks and monuments across all fifty states and territories. The Nebraska entry portrays the Freeman homestead — named for Daniel Freeman, who filed one of the first claims under the Homestead Act of 1862 — and the cabin’s windows provide natural reference points where even light hub doubling produces detectable secondary impressions. The extra partial water pump in window L3 separates DDR-041 from the other forty doubled die reverses for this date, and the strength of the spread despite light hubbing makes it accessible for collectors examining ATB quarters from circulation.
