I dismissed it from damage as it followed the line on the ear, and chance are it was the machine that could do it that accurately. The bounce of MD doesn't always bounce/hop or slide exactly the same. Even from strike to strike on the the same die pairs:
Big-Discovery?-1995-LMC-Doubled-Ear-Found
Note they are all from the same dies and each strike is slightly different. There were actually many more examples from the OBW rolls I had. But others were the same as the examples above. But they were not creating the same doubling each time. (Sloppy machine)

Mailing this one off to Wexler tomorrow, will keep you updated. Still interested to see what he thinks caused this.

Nevermind, wasn't aware of Wexler's situation.

Tanman2001, don't mail it. He's too sick to do attributions right now. I've sent a package to him back in late December, and I've never got it back. I had to unfortunately file a complaint to PayPal to get my money back (which I did).

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. I hold onto it. Hope he can return to the hobby soon.

It's okay Tanman. I didn't know about that at first, but Jim0815 told me. I really hope he gets better, as he was a great attributer.

That's spectacular!

It's going to be a task, but I must try to find it. I ran into one of those a month or two ago that I sat aside and studied repeatedly for 3 or 4 days before dismissing it and tossing it in the "roll" tub. I'll do my best to find it before the end of next weekend and I'll create a thread and link them. I should have trusted myself on that one.

Awesome perseverance Tamman!

Sorry Tanman. I was hoping to provide a second example, but I can't find it. I have about 2 gallons of cents that need to be rolled, and I went through roughly half. I even checked all from 1994-1999 just to cover if I had noticed a similar die on a different date. I know it wouldn't be deeper in the bucket as it wasn't that long ago. Either way, I had a very vivid, reoccurring dream, or I overlooked it somehow. I give up though. Congrats again! I'll be looking for another one.

What was/is Wexler sick with? Did he have covid? Hope he's okay, had no idea. Also, congrats, Tanman!
