jjohnson3582505 Valued Member United States 95 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 1:10 pm How do you determine? I have attached a normal 2018 and then the 2 of the coin in question. I thought the tall tale signs were at the ends splitting of the tariffs. Both ends have total split. Just wondering so I dont waste anyone time with MD Photos. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 6:55 pm When the devise is reduced in size like the 2 on your coin is in question, it is MD. There is no split in the serifs. You've made yourself a great visual aid. Look at the 2 you have a question about, now look at the normal 2. The 2 you have a question about isn't nearly the size of the normal 2. That, is Machine Doubling caused by a loose die. When the Die shifts from one side to the other that is what causes the shelf like appearance. All caused by a loose die. Edited by Jim0815 02/08/2019 7:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/09/2019 12:47 am Also note the center of the devices, you can see where the metal is higher in the center of the devices. Reminds me of moved snow in the winter. If you move the snow, the height rises, just like the moved metal moved after the strike on your coin. Machine Doubling after the strike altered the coin.

jungliston1 Valued Member United States 305 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 9:21 pm Hello all, The Story begins, I find this shiney new Nickel and straight to my jeans Stash pocket. When I get home and Loupe it.After I looked closer, it reminded me of an article or Post about why Denver Mint does not produce as many DDO or DDR as Philadelphia. Then, about another Post I read about an 1983 LMC DDR (can not remember which Mint), that was assumed was a MD, but actually is a DDR. So, I look up DDO 2018 D Jefferson, because some of the Liberty looks a little Doubled. This is one of the first to pop up about DDO. I continue to look and similar type of DDOs pop up but of different dates of Jefferson nickels. After finding this coin, and several other date Jefferson(same series design) with Liberty Doubling. I have some Questions about False DDO and DDR strikes. 1. What would be the Odds of me finding the Exact OP coin, if they released it back to the wild, some 4 months later? 2. What are the Odds this being the same coin in all the different Post? 3. What are the Odds of there being a "F" IT(Friday), Strike Doubled(Saturday, Sunday) or MD(Monday) at the Mint?(Different dates) 4. If only MD, why are some many Different date Jeffersons being found with simialr Doubling but not any other Denominations?(Series Die issue only to Jeffersons) 5. What are the Odds of MD being Exactly the same on different coins and on different dates?(varying degree of Liberty DDO[my observation], from posted and my coins, similar to Wyoming Quarters) 6. What are the Odds of the Single Squeeze process producing a different type of Doubled Die? 7. What are the Odds of Tracing this issue to a Certain Press or Die?(One Press always Loose) 8. Can MD be transferred (if produced before Die production) to the Die?(Is MD possible on a Hub) 9. Does MD effect the same areas on a Legend(similar to DDOs or DDRs), or does it effect areas at random on the Legend?(coins exhibit in same areas of Legend[Quick Study]) 10. Will this type of MD, Exhibit on Philadelphia Mint Jeffersons?(only seen Denver)[Mint or Series die problem] Pics are of same coin. Thank you for the help, Edward M.

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 07:48 am These are not the same coins. The OP's coin has a diagonal contact mark across the 1 of the date that your coin does not have. Report this Post to the Staff
CherryPicker1 Pillar of the Community United States 646 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 10:30 am That's a lot of questions. All I have to say is that both coins are only Machine Doubling and have no premium. Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4404 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 10:34 am I believe this is actually a form of Die Deterioration Doubling, not MD. Die Deterioration affects most dies in a similar way, so there are probably numerous dies with this. Report this Post to the Staff
