It shows some doubling on some of the letters and on the bottom corner of the memorial beside the initials. What caught my eye first was the 2 die cracks on the left side of the memorial on both corners. (I'm assuming that this is Machine Doubling since 100% of everything I've ever posted was.)

brefos77 Pillar of the Community United States 792 Posts	Posted 11/02/2007 04:13 am I have no idea. I'm sure someone will label it as post mint damage, though. Report this Post to the Staff
