TBR Valued Member United States 119 Posts	Posted 08/04/2018 4:35 pm I haven't really checked coins with incuse lettering before and am not sure how to interpret what I am seeing. On regular lettering I think I can usually identify MD and DDD but the incuse lettering seems to be a different ball game. Seems to have split serifs. Doesn't seem bench-like. Does reduce devices. What type of doubling is this on the incuse E. Pluribus Unum letters. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/04/2018 7:06 pm The devices are raised on the die, so any polishing of the die will alter them. Even die scratches and metal striation lines will show on them. Edited by coop 08/04/2018 9:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/04/2018 10:08 pm If you are looking for doubled dies, you won't find them on the outside devices. Only on the center devices. Georges ear or the center of the design on the reverse. The only two areas to look for doubled dies. On the center of the design only! (Other wise your wasting your time) Only one DDO was found on a proof die. On the States coins also the same. Single squeeze dies are only affected on those areas. Report this Post to the Staff
