spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 11/27/2018 02:53 am It is very light MD. On a doubled die, the "extra" part would be identical in prominence as the original design. In this case, the added portion is lower in profile and "shelf-like" as Spence said, so MD. I hope this helps.
