Is this machine damaged? The only doubling I can see Is with the 964 and D in the date, and also with the B in Liberty. Just curious if this is just a damaged coin?
Thank you everyone. I agree the 6 looks like it took a hit. I tried to take some better pictures of the B, 9 and 4. Any thoughts as to what's happened with them?
Remember contact marks are usually incuse on the coin. A die issue will be raised. Machine damage reduces the devices. Hub doubling on the die enlarges the devices. Coin scratches are incuse. Die scratches are raised. The die is a negative of a coin. The coin is a positive of the die. So alteration of devices usually fall into these patterns.
