Can someone explain to me what people mean when they say re punched date or RPD, or link an article that talks about it?
Does it mean the same as Machine Doubling, or Doubled Die, or does it refer to something else?

Is it a term that isn't clearly defined and can be used to refer to any form of doubling?

Thanks
Mitch

From the CCF glossary <------

repunched date
If a date was punched into the die and then punched in again in a different position it is considered to be a repunched date. A dramatic example of the repunched date is the 1894/94 Indian cent, where the two dates are clear, bold and well separated. Most repunched dates are more subtle, such as the 1887/6 Morgan dollar. Such coins as the 1909/8 $20 gold piece or the 1942/1 Mercury dime are not repunched dates, but Doubled Dies, where the changes were made to the working die from a differently-dated working hub.

If I remember correctly I think 1909 was the end of rpd's. Doubleddie.com should still have a good writeup on them also on his site
