My first thought was some kind of MD, but now I'm wondering if it's DD. The close up pics are as follows; R in LIBERTY, 8 in date, A in DOLLAR.. thanks for your thoughts.

Hermz Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 11:56 pm Ah yes, overlooked that possibility. In the link you provided coin hunter, the image with the nickel example reminds me of what I am seeing on this KHD. What gets me still is the R in liberty. If it's LDS how does the R still seem more defined then the 8 and A ? Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 12:13 am Sometimes DDD can enlarge a device. It makes it look all mushy and distorted which can sometimes result in enlargement or what appears to be doubling. I hope that answers your question! If It doesn't, feel free to ask More! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Edited by CoinHunter27 11/28/2020 12:14 am Report this Post to the Staff
Hermz Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 12:28 am I'm just confused on how the R seems less smushed then the 8 and A. I know it still looks similar, but I guess I would assume if it was a LDS that they would all share the same blobby look. But maybe I'm just thinking to far Into it again haha Report this Post to the Staff
