Is this a legit double profile by the nose,lips and under the chin, plus the lower part of the eye? *I know that's MD on the D in GOD. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/16/2010 5:06 pm Looks like Machine Doubling to me. Flat looking doubling. Probably from die movement during the striking of this coin. Report this Post to the Staff

j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 04/17/2010 07:56 am I have a lot of the Kennedys with MD'd profile; none of them are as radical as this one. It's quite possible that's an actual doubled profile. Amongst many aspects of the coin, I do not think that profile on the chin and under the jaw is simple MD. Since I have lots of wooden nickels, I'm betting one of them that that's a legit doubled profile. nice coin. Edited by j_h_s 04/17/2010 07:59 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/17/2010 6:06 pm Machine can vary from strike to strike. Here is an example found in OBW rolls: The more die movement, the more the coin is damaged during the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
