SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10471 Posts	Posted 03/23/2018 11:27 pm Looks like minor Machine Doubling... one thing to remember, on all 1968 dollars with the normal island, the upper waterline is always doubled at the bow of the canoe - that is a design element.

Irelandos Valued Member Canada 50 Posts	Posted 03/24/2018 12:03 am As well if you zoom in on the EH it looks like the numbers are laid on top of each other in a raised stack not flat shelf like doubling ? Report this Post to the Staff
