spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 05/20/2017 03:24 am Your second and third pics show it best. I believe it has a case of MD. It's not only the dots but, the letters underneath.

Potbellypub Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 05/20/2017 10:02 am Thanks spruette. I thought it looked like md but the pics of the doubled legend on cac did too. So I wanted a second opinion. I appreciate your reply. Edited by Potbellypub 05/20/2017 1:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 05/20/2017 2:59 pm I'm no expert but in my observation coinsandcanada calls a lot of stuff "double" that I see as MD/die wear. I think yours matches their photo pretty well. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9903 Posts	Posted 05/20/2017 4:09 pm Yes it is double legend. Both the OP`s coin and the coc coin are double legend, the result of MD. Neither the OP`s coin nor the coc coin are doubled dies. Nowhere on the coc site do they call that coin a DDO, the coins in that section of the listing are merely errors and varieties that members there have posted to share. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
Potbellypub Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 05/20/2017 5:21 pm Ohhhhh DBM you are absolutely right it does not list it as doubled die just double legend. That makes a lot more sense now thank you very much for the reply. Thank you kbbpll I thought it matched the pics as well and now I guess I know why.

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 05/20/2017 5:57 pm Yes - MD. Total flatness and sharp edges on the doubled areas indicate Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
