Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 07/06/2007 5:58 pm Dave its very hard to be absolutely positive from the pic through the slab ,, but it looks like Machine Doubling (ejection ) if the area actually has the raised appearance on the outside edge that I'm getting from the pics,The M also shows some of the same. I also see what looks like a small die crack ? Depending on the date some attention may need to be given to the contaminate spots which are starting on the coin .

garylcsr Pillar of the Community United States 1952 Posts	Posted 07/07/2007 7:55 pm I'm not sure about the MD Metalman. around the M looks more like a die break or crack to me. but a very nice coin anyway. it looks almost brand new to me like it was made yesterday lol Gary Report this Post to the Staff
Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 07/07/2007 8:18 pm I am way confused here. M/D would have little or no phase shift as here, but the separation seems a little drastic. The doubling also tends to look like ejection doubling with a cupped appearance. I believe I am seeing the same thing on the E in one, but why then, is it not on the bottom horizontal on the E? M/D is sort of like a stutter step and the doubling is flat. This does not appear flat. Plus M/D does not just show up on just one letter or location and this appears isolated. As I look harder around the rim and look at the other devises, I wonder if it is not just reflection? Jim Report this Post to the Staff
