coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/02/2009 12:33 pm Proof coins are struck more than once. Sometimes the second strike may move or be striking slightly different location. I'm probably the only one uses the term Strike Doubling, but the striking is making the doubling and not the doubling of the die being hubbed that way. So it is part of the striking process and not a doubled die. Similar to Machine Doubling, but happening on the second/third strike without the die being hub doubled. Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/02/2009 1:26 pm Yup, it's Machine Doubling. Anyway, there are two other things to consider: 1. If you have to blow up a coin that much to see what's going on, nobody is going to be interested in it as a doubled die, even if it were one. 2. There isn't hardly any market at all for commemorative doubled dies. You're better off looking for doubling on car wash tokens. Report this Post to the Staff
