coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/20/2018 11:42 am I'm guessing it is MD on that area. If so you might see striation lines along that edge of the jaw. Now a doubled die. Turn the coin around 180 degrees and see if you can see the striation lines. I would like a close up image of that. Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/20/2018 3:27 pm That's a stumper for me. I thought the plating might have folded, but I don't think so. For sure it's a keeper if for no other reason than keeping a real oddity. Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 07/20/2018 4:33 pm Interesting for sure. Suspecting die movement played a roll. In a way this unique effect seems familiar, but do not recollect when or where at the moment. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

It may not be a money maker, but it is interesting.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/20/2018 8:22 pm The glare is taking over. Try rotating the coin so the light isn't a spot light on it. I need to see something like this: Edited by coop 07/20/2018 8:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 07/21/2018 11:49 am Maybe some ejection doubling? My best guess. Thanks, Doug. Image and quote from coops library. Quote: Note the damage is on the tops of the devices, slightly different than the classic machine damage that alters the sides of the devices. Report this Post to the Staff
