Thanks to all for your support and incouragement. I will endeavor to persevere. Checked out the links and info provided by all and am currently ingesting it all. Good info. I think the totally contradictory opinions just confuse me sometime. I will step in again when I find myself scratching my head during the process. Thanks to all again. See

@Dowhat what contradictory opinions are you seeing? Seems like a complete consensus on the coin you posted: not a DDO.

SamCoin, in response to your last reply. You are correct. All responses following the first one, were in agreement and provided educational information. The wind was taken out of my sails following my first response to this question. Pure and simple MD through out. Punctuated with what appears to be an embarrassed looking emoji. The following responses confirmed my suspicions and provided useful information and opinions directed towards my understanding. Thanks to you all. I just got bummed out after the first reply and felt as though I have learned nothing.

-makescents-, what am I supposed to E-mail you? I have no idea what is turned on or off. For the most part. All these gizmos today are to complicated for me. Hell, I just upgraded my phone and have no idea how to recover my G-mail account. Try morse Code.

In all seriousness, each question asked in this forum is awesome. Whether it's the identification of why not, to coops pics/education, or just plain links to other discussions or seen phes, each provides an educational lesson that is really educational. While, yes some more than others, they each are genuine questions and it's fun to read. Thanks for keeping these discussions going.

I use images to enhance the message to understand things easier. It is easy to get lost in words. Read any information on something new you bought, new services provided, paper work that we don't read, because, we get lost in the words. The ones that help us most are the illustrative ones, with words. Thus my use of both. Easier to understand when we can see what is discussed. Thus my use of images, rather than just using words. The combination together keeps us from drowning in the words. The illustrations are the breath of air, keeps us from drowning in the words.

 Good example of Mechanical Doubling - shelf-like. But more importantly, see the center of the devices? They are narrowed. They lost thickness during the Mechanical Doubling. True doubling. As Coop always says, focus on the center of the devices and it will be easier to see true doubled dies. The outside edge of the devices might still show MD. It is the spread of the center you're seeking.
