Titles are Important! * Whispers to self don't tell them your entire life's story...just get to the point& Hieee. I'm brand new to this. So maybe I'm just hoping for some beginners luck but is this one worth anything more than well, a penny? I apologize for the terrible photos. I spent an embarrassing amount of time even just catching these #128556; Thank you In advance for your time PS: I think I posted in the wrong forum..but the website is extremely clunky and difficult to navigate...is there an app? How millennial of me to ask. HA Edited by Renpenny 07/26/2019 12:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/26/2019 2:58 pm What is master die doubling: The master hub creates two master dies. The one of the master dies that year had hub doubling on the master die. Note the progression above on the chart. Thus all the working hubs struck with the master die passed on the master die doubling to half of the dies created that year on all three mints. This was not discovered till later one. So about 50% of the cents struck that year have the master die doubling on them, making these coin normal. There are a few master die dies that were doubled dies, but they are minor. Confined to the '2' on the date area. Report this Post to the Staff

Renpenny New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 07/26/2019 5:41 pm So is a master die die doubled MDDD Or is it DMDD DDMD? Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73946 Posts	Posted 07/26/2019 6:25 pm So for your coin, it would be Machine Doubling (MD) and Master Die Doubling (MDD). That's how you would correctly classify it. There's two different and separate types of doubling on your coin. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/26/2019 8:26 pm But neither hub doubling in the case of a doubled die. The hub that struck your coin had master die doubling that was pass down the chain of command, but not hub doubling that would create a doubled die. The 1972 DDO-007 is an example where this did happen: This one is a MDD and also hub doubled. http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...2PDDO009.htm Note of the description on this link: What is actually doubled: Quote: Description: Strong spread as an extra bar above the 2 of the date.
