Cleatis87 Valued Member United States 125 Posts	Posted 12/18/2017 9:07 pm It looks to be doubling caused by Die Deterioration. The letters and numbers appear mushy and flat. Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 12/18/2017 9:38 pm I think you have both DDD and MD on this one. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 12/19/2017 01:53 am MD happens on both sides and in multiple directions at times. May bounce to the left after moving up to the right, or a double bounce making two shelves. Have seen up to three shelves on a device! The mushiness of the obverse shows extreme die attrition, deterioration, wear, stretching polishing, overuse. Pretty strong die to not be exhibiting cracks!

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74481 Posts	Posted 12/19/2017 02:11 am Crazyb0, that is one heck of a Nickel that the OP has. Definitely has been overused, but the U.S Mint probably kept it going until the die wear got to be too much or until it broke! :) Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
