Won this from Tanmans contest.
Separation and spread on devices are hard to see but you can see the notching on the bottom left in EPU and half of half dollar pretty well

I hope you like it! I cherrypicked it off ebay in a lot of 2 silver halves two years ago and later I cherrypicked an AU example the same way. Since I had two, I decided it would be a good coin to giveaway in a contest.

WHO ( working hub doubling)


What makes you think that? This is a popular DDR, it wouldn't be if it is a doubled working hub.
Doubled working hubs, to my understanding, do not look any different from a doubled die. The only way to tell if it is a working hub or die doubling is how common the doubling is.

It looks like it by the posted pictures.It may or may not be, I have had more than one example of similar doubling where I thought they were DD, and after it was examined by an expert they turned out to be WHO, so it is a possibility.

Neither CONECA or Wexler lists a doubled working hub for that date.

I have another 1942 FS-801, so I'm pretty sure the one I sent Mrzllewellyn is one too.
