MaxPower Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 09/03/2021 06:36 am I was going through my change from the day and came across this. I'm still learning so I could use some outside input on it. I couldn't find any other listings for this date to compare it against. So, would this be doubling or Die Deterioration? Or something else that I haven't considered? As always, thanks for looking.

(a sure sign the die is well aged) So if the fields are affected, wouldn't the devices be affected as well. So this shows in the direction of the closest rim. Not a doubled die, but could also happen to a doubled die. But the aging of the die doesn't make it into a doubled die. Report this Post to the Staff
