MS1026 New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 01/11/2008 4:17 pm I am still very unsure as too how to spot a double die as opposed to a coin with Machine Doubling. As I am very much into coin hunting and now have a high power digital and just bought a tripod today for coin photography I am interested in if anyone can help me distinguish what to look for in seperating the two. What do I have here? Thank you! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v.../000195D.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...0001a95D.jpg Edited by MS1026 01/11/2008 4:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/11/2008 8:15 pm I don't see anything that resembles hub doubling (doubled dies) on any of the coins imaged in this thread. A doubled die is going to noticeably thicken the overall size of the letters and leave notches at the corners where the two hubbings overlap. No easier way to explain it, but the difference between doubled dies and other forms of doubling is obvious. Report this Post to the Staff
MS1026 New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 01/11/2008 10:54 pm so this type of doubling in the D and the S of TRUST is Machine Doubling? Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/11/2008 10:56 pm It appears to be more a play of light on a normal coin to me...not doubling at all. Report this Post to the Staff
