coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/27/2020 7:19 pm I've been noting a lot of new ones coming by with Machine Doubling thinking it was a doubled die, so I started concentrating on the spread subject. So added this part two to half newer ones to add to their knowledge to improve on their searches. Remember a lot more subjects of interest is found on the CoopHome link. Note it turns blue? Pages of informatim on different subjects there. (There are three pages of subjects there) Report this Post to the Staff
thegrendel Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 01/14/2021 09:21 am Truly, a wonderful and educational thread. Doubled die "spread" is something I'm very much interested in. It's a shame that there isn't some sort of scale to grade spread, with, say, the 1955/55 Lincoln as a 10, going down to a 1 for barely discernible spread. The 1955/55 is notable because the spread is greater than the width of the doubled devices. There is actually daylight showing between the images. Now, with everyone's indulgence, I would like to show an image from a previous post of mine, a 2010 2 Rupees coin from India, the one I call the Raja of Rupees (yes, an obvious pun on the King of Lincolns). Almost as much spread as the 1955/55. Report this Post to the Staff
That Coin Dude Pillar of the Community United States 1427 Posts	Posted 01/14/2021 11:22 am If you want to find the degree of spread, for Class 1, in PS outline an image of a normal version of the coin, copy it, put your coin in there, and rotate until you get them to line up, then measure the rotation of the 2nd outline.

thegrendel Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 01/14/2021 1:36 pm The image I posted above looks to me like class IV doubling. Degree of rotation wouldn't apply. There ought to be some measure of shift. If only I could figure out how to transpose a micron scale over the image .. Report this Post to the Staff
