Dearborn Moderator United States 70116 Posts	Posted 04/23/2025 12:45 pm a circulation hit. The ear is a high point on the coin and can take hits like that to make it appear doubled.

mb560600 Valued Member United States 326 Posts	Posted 04/23/2025 6:41 pm Interesting. I'm also of the opinion it is likely PMD. However, not conclusive based upon your photographs. Can you provide additional images of the ear from different angles? Report this Post to the Staff

mb560600 Valued Member United States 326 Posts	Posted 04/24/2025 9:55 pm Gus44, the third of the additional photos you posted shows metal movement and a rough edge at the bottom of the earlobe. This would indicate that the coin took a hit. What you are seeing is Post Mint Damage, not a doubled die. Keep searching. Those doubled die varieties are out there! Report this Post to the Staff
Gus44 Valued Member Brazil 53 Posts	Posted 04/24/2025 11:22 pm Thank you all for the clarification, just posting a few more photos out of curiosity and also one more detail of this coin that can be found in the signature Report this Post to the Staff
