greenprint Valued Member United States 477 Posts	Posted 03/18/2016 10:51 pm this is hard for me to tell unlike machine damage I can see were the two tips of the tails of the nines do indeed separate with some space (the very tips) were with machine damage I would suspect the doubles to be touching? this is still in mint cello wrap and hasn't been circulated I also noted this weird behavior on the R that doesn't look flat and shelf like Edited by greenprint 03/18/2016 11:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/19/2016 01:35 am Looks pretty much normal when you see it that far back. If you could get some horizontal shots of the date, I snag an image from Heritage coins that might make a good side by side to see if they are different or not? The last ones have too much light. I'll check back to see what you have tomorrow. Edited by coop 03/19/2016 01:42 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/19/2016 6:19 pm I'm not seeing hub doubling on your coin. The area on the 9 might be a bit of MD or a contact mark. But I made a SBS with three others on HeritageCoins.com: Other than the blunt end on the inside of the 9 it looks normal. (no mention of this in any publication about the blunt end, but I noticed it mainly on the cameo listed coins on Heritage) The rest of the proof coins showed the tapered ends.
