coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/24/2018 8:27 pm The OPs coin has die wear on the top edges of the devices, and Machine Doubling on the bottoms of these same devices. So the die is starting to break down from usage. Note the area to the right of 'M' on UNUM on the first image. We can start to see die flow there. So it is probably in the LDS (Late-Die-State) when your coin was struck. But the bottoms of EPU are showing classic Machine Doubling. There is also a bit of coin wrapper damage on the obverse as well. Edited by coop 02/24/2018 10:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff
