coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/12/2020 12:44 pm Looks more like damage. If that is the only device that is affected on the coin it maybe a well place coin hit. If other devices in the same direction are affected then it is Machine Doubling. The overall look of the mintmark looks altered on the top from what I can see. Note the upper curve is smaller than the lower curve of the mintmark. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/12/2020 1:08 pm When looking at the top of the mintmark area, (where it is not flattened) is that area higher than the other parts of the mintmark. (Like pushed snow?) If so it is coin damage or MD. Note the flat area on these devices. MD. But note the area pushed aside, that is where the flattened area what shoved after the strike. (You can see it on all the devices on the right side of the devices. (like pushed snow) Report this Post to the Staff
