Peele New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 08/23/2015 7:26 pm I found this 1992 D cent. I cannot identify the type of error of the shadow under the D. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you , Peele Dunn Report this Post to the Staff

rockdude Pillar of the Community United States 1807 Posts	Posted 08/23/2015 8:51 pm I agree Split-Line Doubling, split plating, Plating Split-Doubling. No matter what you call it it's; a split in the copper, revealing a light blue to greenish area (which is exposed zinc), that shadows a device and makes it appear doubled.

Peele New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 08/23/2015 9:44 pm THank you for the information. I have a lot to learn and find the coin forum very interesting. So, split-line doubling must be a common occurance and this coin is not special. I'llkeep looing at the site and learn as much as possible. Peele Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/23/2015 10:44 pm It usually happens when the strike is too strong, damaging the coin. Most commonly found on the mint mark, but also affects the reverses: Report this Post to the Staff
