I've seen the three of the same coin, double die/verietys, normal and mechanical damage. Wouldnt it be possible to have a variety with Mechanical Doubling or other traits that are considered damage?

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 04/11/2018 8:00 pm If you are asking can a DDO coin have MD or another machining error at the same time, then most definitely yes. Hub doubling is the PROCESS OF DIE PRODUCTION, errors are a PROCESS OF MACHINING. Two different manners and steps of the coining process. You can also have a doubled die AND MDD Master Die doubling like on the 1972P/D/S cents where all three working hubs were affected by the MDD and certain ones became DDO's Then any other mechanical fault can happen as can a clipped planchet and other planchet troubles. Anything is possible. Edited by Crazyb0 04/11/2018 11:01 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sense the machining is negative wouldn't that make say, a 1969-s double die less valuable. On the other hand depending on the type of process were talking about it might make it more valuable?
