Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 08/26/2021 12:40 pm I inspected a coupled of these not the exact same year. On the far right side of the building between the building and FS there is something. I can't get close enough but I tried my best. Hopefully you guys can clarify if it's a doubled die(iv seen some doubled dies that look like this) or a die chip. I'm assuming it's going to be a die chip and not my first doubled die find but we will see. It's in good shape compared to other nickels I have come across. Report this Post to the Staff

nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 08/26/2021 12:53 pm looks like a small die chip, the sides of the building have been common locations for them during the past 15 years or so Report this Post to the Staff

Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 08/26/2021 1:57 pm I know it's also a common place for doubled dies I believe, but I think you guys are probably right Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/26/2021 3:16 pm A die chip would be a die event, not a doubled die. A doubled die happens when the die is created and the hub process creates the doubled die, on the die. (Thus the term "doubled die" because the die is doubled.) Report this Post to the Staff
Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 08/26/2021 3:19 pm I'm aware about the difference between the two, just because of my phone's microscope not bring great and can't see pat 9.5× some times die chips along something can look like a doubled die to me just like after your post on my modern dimes, now I won't be confused about where I see things on nickels either. Idk why the doubled die list wasn't available on wexler Report this Post to the Staff
