2020-P 25¢ VT WWHR-001 Working Hub Hubbed-In Debris
Description: An incuse, branch-shaped mark between the two bottom branches on the right side of the tree is the result of a working hub issue, not a doubled die or strike through.
Die Markers:Obverse: Die markers will vary on the individual working dies affected. Reverse: Die markers will vary on the individual working dies affected.

Cross References: None known
Comments: This appears much like true doubled dies known for this design except that this mark is incuse while true doubling is raised. The current belief is that this was caused by a clogged master die as missing detail on the lower branch is a common issue on these coins. While creating a working hub using this master die, some of this debris became dislodged and was pressed into the working hub, leaving this branch-shaped mark on the hub. Slight variance in the appearance of this mark may be due to wear on the hub or the dies created from it, though it is also possible that multiple working hubs created from the clogged master die were hubbed in this debris. This working hub, or at the least one also hubbed in the same debris, was also used to create working dies for the West Point mint. The following previously listed varieties have all been determined to be from WWHR-001: WDDR-003, WDDR-004, WDDR-005, WDDR-006, and WDDR-007.
