jc_hicks New Member United States 34 Posts	Posted 02/04/2017 12:13 am Hello, everyone. I couldn't help but to get your opinions on this LMC. It has strong doubling on LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, below his ear, and behind his head. However, I can't find anything on a doubled die for it. Opinions appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/04/2017 12:34 am Sorry that is Machine Doubling on those devices. That is why you won't find it listed. It is not a doubled die. What you are seeing is device reduction after the strike caused by the machine, not hub doubling on the die. Edited by coop 02/04/2017 12:34 am Report this Post to the Staff
Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 02/04/2017 12:35 am The doubling looks shelf like to me, suggesting MD. I also can't see separation in the serifs of the letters. Maybe it's the angle or lighting. Can you post a full head on picture of the obverse? Report this Post to the Staff
jc_hicks New Member United States 34 Posts	Posted 02/04/2017 12:45 am Thank you, coop. I thought it was MD, but the ear threw me off. I should have went a little further with my previous statement. I couldn't find anything on a doubled die from that coin which led me to believe it was most likely MD. That's a great picture showing the differences. Thanks, Druu. I agree with you. I don't see any separation, but I thought it could possibly be from the wear. I can, but I don't have any at the moment. These are some I had that I was trying to do a little more research on.
