Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 4:15 pm I agree MD. As to how common this location is for that to occur, I honestly haven't thought much about that. For sure the date comes up quite a bit.

sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 11:01 pm It's common around the outer devices. To just have it in the BER seems strange to me. Report this Post to the Staff
Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7030 Posts	Posted 11/06/2021 12:27 am @ Sarge50...if my memory serves me right, a few years back you found a batch of coins in a storage locker? T or F? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/06/2021 8:42 pm I always refer to it as Machine Doubling, rather an Mechanical Doubling. Whats the difference? Well a machine is mechanical, but the use in motion is a machine. Thus it is called Machine Doubling, by operation of a machine in motion. Not a mechanical in motion. Just seems weird to put it that way. Edited by coop 11/06/2021 8:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
