coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/15/2018 6:45 pm Looks like a contact mark on the face. The nose area looks like it was affected by push doubling. (another form of Machine Doubling) Machine Doubling usually affects the edges of the bust and devices. Caused by a movement of the dies after the strike. Not a doubled die, on a doubled die the doubling is on the die. This was caused by the machine. Report this Post to the Staff

jsgoldny Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 12/17/2018 06:24 am Agree on Machine Doubling on face. Would like to see better pictures of date. I question the 9 an 3 as they are very thick. Report this Post to the Staff
