Nyfireman Valued Member United States 218 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 8:05 pm good evening my friends I have a question. What would cause the letters to break up like this and show the tops of the letters on the rim of the coin. I hope I'm explaining this right lol Report this Post to the Staff

Nyfireman Valued Member United States 218 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 8:59 pm Is this worth holding onto since its a minor one or should I keep since its called a rare form of michine doubling? Report this Post to the Staff
BlueSolo Pillar of the Community United States 740 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 9:15 pm mikediamond: Interesting, never heard of that before. Nyfireman: Probably hold on to it since it doesn't come up often. It's listed on the link mike gave as "only been detected on Presidential dollars (Washington to Madison), several 1994 cents, and a 2004 cent." I would put it in a 2x2 and have it as an example, won't cost you much. Report this Post to the Staff
