Please check out these pictures of a Minnesota Quarter, focus on the last tree on the right. What do you think is it possibly the next number??

It's most likely machine doubling, but the images are too blurred to be sure.

I would tend to agree with Mike on this, however, further analysis of this coin would not hurt. The one draw back that I see is that the Minnesota quarters have been heavily searched, especially the reverse; Why is this doubling just showing up now?

There are well over 100 doubled die reverse Minnesota State Quarters. If this is a DDR, it might already be identified. I believe John Wexler has the most complete listings of these.

Additional pictures as requested. I'm having a very hard time taking these getting enough light without blurring the detail. Well here they are.

I believe this one to be mechanical doubling. What also makes it less likely to be a doubled die is the fact that all of the known doubled dies for this State Quarter are near the center of the die, not toward the edge. The hubbing process used pretty much guarantees this with few exceptions.
