truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 04/09/2018 12:07 pm I'm sure this is Machine Doubling, but wanted to get a 2nd opinion. The T and R look like clear examples of Machine Doubling, but the you and S resembled an example of DDO. The R in TRUST seems small in some of the other 1919 S cents I looked at, so I thought it might doubled, but the way the T tapers together at the bottom looked a lot like Machine Doubling. The S and the you are the ones that caught my eye and made me want to post it. It looks like it might be doubled to me. But Like I said I'm pretty sure it's MD I just wanted some help with this one.

truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 04/09/2018 1:00 pm Thanks John1, The more I looked at the 1917 DDO on Coppercoins the more I thought this one might be legit. But I'll keep looking. Edited by truman1404 04/09/2018 1:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 08/23/2020 9:07 pm Missboleyn, image making a letter out of dough. Place a knife into the dough near the edge on one side of the letter, then push the dough away from the letter. The letter get smaller and a flat area is formed. With MD, that's what the edge of the die is doing to the copper during the pressing process, after the letter is first formed. Report this Post to the Staff
