The picture is kinda small, but I think that's just a well placed hit on the letter "Y" from Post Strike Damage ( PSD). I don't think it's Machine Doubling. If you want to learn more about Machine Doubling, take a look at one of my very helpful tutorial I made on Machine Doubling. On that thread, I also have showed a real Doubled Die that I found CRH, to show the differences between the two types of doubling. I have also explained a little bit of how a real Doubled Die actually happens. http://goccf.com/t/332421 Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/13/2018 10:15 pm Hello and MD ( Machine Doubling) appears flat and shelf like. DDOs/DDRs (Doubled Die obverses/Doubled Die reverses) appear as a raised device, copies of the original. They can be very hard to notice, or just thickness on a device. They are not flat, rather the same shape as the original device. They can Be all different sizes though. The device can Be doubled a little or a lot. I'll put a link to learn more about doubled dies and MD below: Doubled Dies: http://doubleddie.com/58222.html MD: http://doubleddie.com/144822.html There are lots of different stages, types, and classes. Hope I exlapined everything okay-If you have any other questions, let us know. Happy hunting!
