MD on the date , the rest is wear and tear and it's history. Please start reading up on the MD's versus DD's. there are several articles posted on this forum you can read and educate yourself.

You have posted numerous topics with similar questions, I sincerely think it is time for you to do a bit of effort and research of your own to learn the difference between the MD and DD.

That's Machine Doubling, not a Doubled Die.

Earlier today one of our experts had a very valid respond to one of the threads, I'd like you to read:


Quote:
there is ABSOLUTELY no problem with asking a question, or continuing to ask the same questions in general to help get over a snag in understanding. When I encounter such folks, I will just try a new approach/cconcept to attempt to break through the mind block so one can finally get to the point of understanding the answer.

BUT, there MUST come a point in any educational system where a serious student begins using the tools he(she, it, Heinz 57) has repeatedly been given. That knowledge will never become personal, "your own", until you do. There are two life's adages that are of prime importance here.

"You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make them drink"

And the "Teacher's(Manager's, Parents) Clause", "Teach yourself out of a job". As a former businessman, manager, I got there because I "taught" my installation abilities to someone else. I didn't have to protect my knowledge to save my job, I became promoted because I had "followers" who could do my old job. I then had to learn NEW responsibilities. That is why we "pass it on", and when you finally "have it", you can give it! It is the same in the military, Sargents teach Privates, Lieutenants teach Sargents.

I believe there are 3 types of people in the world. There are Sheep, Wolves and Guardians. Sheep aren't the mindless masses(necessarily) but are followers, they plod along, doing their own thing, but are vulnerable to the Wolves who want to take even if possible the sheep's life, and there are those who choose to stand up to the Wolves, correct what is wrong and fight the Wolf if necessary. We are all one or the other of these, but, people can change, that is their CHOICE. And it comes from doing your OWN HOMEWORK!

Excellent baseline reference John1. That thread needs to be a sticky (if it isn't already!) and MANDATORY reading of each new person, tests for a basic understanding should be administered!...but yes, I know, such a radical educational concept as testing of retention ability is no longer acceptable...awards of participation must be administered...those dubious pats on the back need to be a little bit lower.

I don't see where Chase was rude to you at all. That is clearly MD, not a DD.

Newcoin, I've been collecting since last year. I am a member of two different sites and I can say this with all certainty, this is the best site. These guys are here to help. There is a point to be made, educate yourself a little bit. errorref.com is an excellent site to educate yourself. I have learned so much from the great people on this site and learning more from them everyday. One piece of advice given to me was look at as many posts as you can on this site, that will also help you determine what you may be seeing when you do find something. For an old guy like me, it's an ongoing education. I promise you, you're on the right site.

Hey CCF I agree with everything that you're saying this is the best website to learn about different type of coins. Like I mentioned before I am new to all of this. Before I joined this community I had a hard time to find a website to tell difference between what's what basically I had to use Google images. I don't know if you remember that feeling when you started to coin hunt and you found something that's not supposed to be on the coin that excitement that you might just found something cool. Basically what I'm saying is if you can point me in the right direction for proper website about where I could find and learn more about different types of error or damages I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
