Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 05/29/2020 9:27 pm It looks like split plating doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/29/2020 9:28 pm The devices look normal in size, with some Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 05/29/2020 9:34 pm Machine Doubling for sure. I don't really like those cents as they are almost always showing signs of MD. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/29/2020 9:39 pm Thus the reason I don't like Machine Doubling. It is a strike issue,not a die issue. Doubled dies are created on the die. Machine Doubling is a sloppy strike issue that can happen on a doubled die. Report this Post to the Staff
SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 05/29/2020 9:41 pm Makes sense. I don't like it either. Sure, I find it rather somewhat interesting when it's more severe, and not on these shield cents, but nevertheless, still don't like it. Simply gets in the way of finding actual errors and varieties.

sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 05/29/2020 11:46 pm When I look at the first 2 it seems to have separation of the end of the 2 at the top left and bottom left. I didn't thin MD could cause that sort of separation. Or is the camera just not picking up the shelf at those points? Thanks for helping me learn. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3647 Posts	Posted 05/30/2020 12:55 am @coop, Do you see any differences in how MD looks on coins struck on the horizontal-strike Schuler presses, as opposed to the old vertical-strike Bliss presses? Denver switched to the Schuler presses in 2004-2005, depending on the denomination. IIRC, Philadelphia made the switch later. Report this Post to the Staff
