marymanard Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 02/17/2017 4:29 pm Just trying to figure out what kind of error is this... On the back there is a green shadow around nearly every edge And On the front besides some PMD? To "we", there is a slight shadow around the top of his head but not as evident as on the back... Hope the pics turn out Thank you for your help! Report this Post to the Staff

Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 02/17/2017 4:58 pm Are you talking about the gap between the text on the back and the rim? It looks like Die Deterioration Doubling to me. This also applies to the halo you see around Lincoln's head. If you take a closer look on the date and mint mark, you should be able to see some doubling there as well (I think I can see it near the D) -- it's typically to the southeast of the date and mint mark, as Die Deterioration creates a doubled image towards the rim of the coin.
