Here is some update information from some quarters I found during the search for how many out of 100 are machine doubled. I found in the 70% area of minor to stronger machine doubled examples on these. So they are quite common. I took images of a few strong ones and a new conclusion I came to on these. I feel the first kiss of the die alters the planchet with a mark, but the strike enhances this area making it look like it is doubled. But they are not doubled dies.
Just for the sake of education, how do you explain this doubling,it clearly does not fit in the incuse nor reduced in size or enlarged category that was explained above.the doubling is raised.This is the only one I have seen in the 100 ATB's I searched. Thank you.
