Titles are Important! * I have three 1982 D large date with the exact same doubling on the E in WE. The odds of this happening to three different coins coming from the same mint is astronomical. After the first one I found I just thought it was a neat find. After the second one months later I thought it was unusual. After the third I am beginning to think there is something here. Experts, please chime in. [ Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 02/01/2018 5:30 pm Not a DDO, the device isn't increased in size, but it doesn't look like a high bounce MD either. If the dies were loose in the housing, say one adjustment screw, then the motion could replicate in the same direction on multiple strikes. But, like I said, not MD. This looks like a partial grease plug. Where instead of filling flat on the bottom of the die device, hung off to the side...or part broke off and no longer plugged that half. Note it is a VLDS, die flow has moved devices to rim, so Grease Fill is likely. Report this Post to the Staff
