Spence Moderator United States 34452 Posts	Posted 08/18/2018 09:35 am @MrO, sorry but I don't see any doubling of any sort--just a few tick marks on some of the numbers and letters in the inscriptions. Maybe you can add an arrow or two to the specific features that seem doubled?

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21668 Posts	Posted 08/18/2018 09:40 am I agree. Hard to say for sure with out of focus pictures, but I can't see any doubling. PS- Correct term is Doubled Die Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/18/2018 12:04 pm Slight tilted die issue. When the die is tilted even a little, a space between the die and the collar allows the metal to form a fin on the edge of the coin. With circulation and perhaps just rolling the coins, the fin gets flattened down. What did it look like before it was flattened? Easily flattened. But only worth a premium if you can find them with the fin showing without being flattened. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75385 Posts	Posted 08/18/2018 12:39 pm Not a Doubled Die Obverse. There's no doubling present on your coin. Maybe it's the damage that you are seeing on the devices? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
