DmanofLV Valued Member United States 98 Posts	Posted 11/16/2015 6:51 pm I've been having a lot of fun with this 55-S Lincoln roll. I found 3 Green Neon/copper cents, two U-R-I-B-U-S Ribs, three cracked die cents, four S/S/S, ten S/S, four with extra wheat kernels, and one coin that first appeared to be a RDD. According to Wexler, the coin is actually an MD ( Mechanical Doubling), This form of doubling has also been known by a number of different names over the years. It has been referred to as "ejection doubling", " Machine Doubling", " Strike Doubling", "shift doubling", and "shelf doubling". termed by some on Coin Forum as being mechanical damage. Thank you all for your help on this! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/17/2015 2:51 pm Yes I did. But was running out of room when I added the lettering. So I left that for the eye to discern. Thanks for your images. Report this Post to the Staff
