John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/05/2015 07:56 am Well yes and no. It is doubling but it is MD not a DDR. Also it would be called a "doubled" die not a "double" die, just a FYI. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

ChildOfTheWheat Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 04/05/2015 11:42 am Looks like Machine Doubling, very common and not worth more than the copper its "stamped" on. *Double Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/05/2015 2:40 pm Your first two images are the clearest indicator, especially the "U." See how the "doubling" carries around the corner as a "shelf" without showing a notch where one letter ended and the second began? This is the classic sign of Machine Doubling. Die doubling will show two distinct letters, nothing else. Report this Post to the Staff
