coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 06/06/2012 10:49 am The main thing to remember about doubled dies is that the doubling has to be an exact copy of something else on the design. Doubling doesn't just 'happen' - it has to be the re-creation of another detail. The lines you have don't come close to matching any of the columns on the coin, so this anomaly is not the result of hub doubling. There are a number of different things it could be, and I would be hesitant to speculate on what it is until I had the chance to look at the coin under a microscope. I can say that I have seen these before and believe them to be rather common. Report this Post to the Staff
