It is a DDR. You can see the double knees on this one. So the die slight adjusted it self after the first kiss of the strike that began and moved very slightly. This caused the doubled knees on the single squeeze process. (I think I have figured out the error in their process that is causing the doubled dies, but I'm not telling. It involves the shape of the die blank.

coop wow thank you so much . I did a lot of pressing 100m 150m but this was all wire and connectors and splices. I have watched what dies can do to metal. yes coop there's a video showing hubbing. it shows exactly what happen to cause the hub doubling with a fold. that is incredible video excellently done. coop I like your page its great reading good question great answers. this helps everybody. I have a friend who wants me to photo a coin for him. what it is its a 1883 Morgan. I have asked him if he would mind if I posted the photos here. he said no problem its been in his family for a long time. he thinks it might have a little doubling but he is not sure. well I know if there is any place to find out its here. thank you again.

Dear Rocky: We have a policy of ONE coin per thread. I'm surprised no one bothered to mention it to you, and now you're mixing Classic coins here in the Modern section. Mixing dates and types of coins can/is confusing in a single thread.

It may be part of a die clash on that area, but I don't think so:   Most of the time the clash marks are where the two designs outline each other. But seems too complete to be a die crack. Not a denomination I deal with regularly. The crack would be small if there was one. The second image if too close. It is close, I can't see what I'm looking at. The other images of cents, not sure why they are there?

Take a re-look at the images, this should be on a separate topic.

I am very sure the members here will want to know. so let me know if I can message you. I need to show you this coin. when you see it you will understand very quickly. the thing is how many are out there in circulation. this is a first for me. so please let me know.

Your question is do we believe repunched dies (presumably referring to repunched mint marks as that's the only thing that's been punched on US coins in at least 100 years or so) exist? RPMs are well documented and literally thousands of them can be found on variety vista, Wexler's, and copper coins... this question is like asking on a biology forum if they believe in evolution lol

SamCoin thats all fine and dandy. yes that is the question . all I have ever been told is they dont exist. so can you show us a coin that has repunched digits on it. so one can see what they look like. I know where there is one. but that is on a canadian coin. which according to them the canadian collector it dont happen. the mints do not repunch dies. so where does that leave us do they exist or not. can you clear this up I hope so I would like to see one please thank you.
