ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19553 Posts	Posted Today 10H 15M ago Yes, classic Machine Doubling. The '69 S cent is notorious for this. Some examples are rather cool. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21879 Posts	Posted Today 9H 7M ago Notice the reduced device, that is Machine Doubling. If it was a Doubled Die, the device would be larger. A good example is to look at the 9's in the date. The second 9 is normal whereas the first 9 is reduced as Machine Doubling. If this was a Doubled Die, the first 9 would be larger than the second 9.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 78857 Posts	Posted Today 5H 42M ago It's Machine Doubling, not a Doubled Die. I would suggest to study more and keep trying to look for Doubled Dies. www.doubleddie.com Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
