cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 07/12/2015 6:26 pm Mechanical damage. See how the secondary image is flat and shelf like? Also not how the mint mark shows the same doubling. The mint marks in 1973 were punched into the dies after the design, so if it were a doubled die, the mint mark wouldn't show the same doubling.

cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 07/12/2015 6:36 pm Try to get a photo with the light from a different direction so we can see inside the cusp of the 3 better. To answer your question, yes. An RPM or a doubled die can also show MD. Report this Post to the Staff
