The obverse of the 2009 Commonwealth of Puerto Rico quarters shows the traditional Washington quarter obverse that has been in use since the series was introduced in 1932.  The target area for doubled dies on this design is the area around the bottom of Washington's ear.  The reverse of the 2009 Puerto Rico quarters features a sentry box and a hibiscus flower.  The target area for doubled dies on this design would be the right side of the sentry box and the left most leaves of the hibiscus flower.  While the entire obverse and reverse should be examined carefully for doubling, the target area is where you are most likely going to find the doubled die doubling.

If you have any 2009 Puerto Rico quarter doubled die varieties that are not shown on this page, we would love to add them to our files.  Go to the Collector Resources page to find the guidelines for submitting coins for attribution.

In the following listings the person listed as "Submitted By" is the person who sent the coin for listing in the Wexler Doubled Die Files.  It is not necessarily the person who originally discovered the variety.
