truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 06/13/2017 2:40 pm Need an opinion on this coin, I'm not sure what is going on with it. Thanks in advance. Mitch I put the black arrows on the part I thought was hub doubling and the white arrows on the part I thought might be Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff

truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 06/13/2017 3:21 pm That's what I thought at first too, but the lack of a step on the date made me think otherwise. Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 06/13/2017 3:42 pm Remember, proofs are struck twice, MD could have happened one direction on first and a different direction in the second, looks here to have a NE direction #1 and S direction on #2 causing the #1 to be weaker, almost straighten out.

truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 06/13/2017 4:07 pm I didn't know that about proofs, I saw the 90 degree edge and thought it had to be hub doubling. Thanks guys. Report this Post to the Staff

truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 06/14/2017 11:42 am Thanks Aristarchus. Getting good shots of proof coins is tough that glare is hard to work with, and I appreciate the compliment. Report this Post to the Staff
