Thank you for the new pics! It's MD, not a doubled die, sorry.

I don't think it's Machine Doubling. It's to squared like a step and not angled like a mountain. These pictures show the same striking as the Y on the better T. I think it was struck multiple times. Look at the leg of the R as well. -makecents-   |

Also look at this -makecents- What causes these lines to happen if it isn't multi struck? Weakness in the metal?  Edited by Dykil93

Ok, I'll have to do more research About Machine Doubling I guess. Didn't realize it could be on such a sharp and new looking Coin. I thought it could only be produced by an old die. Thank you. |

What is causing the raised lines under the liberty in the last picture? Was it the result of a weak metal comp? Errers and Varietys

Those are trail dies. I thought I could see them in your early pics but was not sure. Here is a link to see if you can find one to match yours. I'll look as well and see what you've come up with this evening. Looks like there are three pages of 2006 P obverse trails. LINK https://www.traildies.com/2006p-1deo_001-010/-makecents-

Alright, I went through the trail die listings and came up with some for you to check for markers, with the existing pics I cannot find any. You have the coin in hand, so see if you can match it up. 9T, 12T, 14T, 21T and 26T. All of these are similar in location and degree of angle. Here is also a pic of yours that I put in correct orientation. LINK https://www.traildies.com/2006p-1deo_001-010/  -makecents-

I am assuming Traildies do not have an extra value, but I don't see the trails my coin has on any of the pictures provided on the website. Maybe I should submit my pictures to them for educational purposes?

Sorry -makecents- , I didn't realize you had to click page two of the replies on the IPhone to see more comments. Let me take a look at 9T, 12T, 14T, 21T and 26T like you said. I will let you know, also thanks for sending the link about how I could contact them if I choose to do so. Very informative and helpful!

Worn dies cause Die Deterioration Doubling. Push Machine Doubling happens due to vibration in the strike. The coin and die have a second interaction where the die cavity comes down again, shears metal from freshly struck device, and crushes it flat adjacent to the device. The appearance is flat and shelf-like, and can be quite crisp. Aside from the crispness, one way to differentiate DDD vs. MD is that DDD actually widens the device because the die cavity is widening as it wears. MD reduces the main device, because the crushed metal must come from the device itself. |
