If anyone thinks it's necessary to add, more pictures of the motto, as I forgot to look over the pictures I posted, I will do so, but it may not be necessary if you guys think it's just a normal machine doubled coin

 very nice close-up images. And a very nice example of MD - a 2x2 keeper for an example. |

We see this more often on the larger sized coins. Just like this, most of the time. It is not a doubled die, as a doubled die affects the centers of the devices. Die wear and Machine Doubling is seen on the deices. 1. Die wear is seen in the direction of the die wear. (towards the closest rims) 2. Machine Doubling is seen on the outside/inside edges of devices an only affect half of each device. Look at the other side of the same devices. That was what it looked like before the dies slid and damaged the devices on your coin. 3. A doubled die can have Machine Doubling (as the machine affects both doubled dies and normal dies). But Machine Doubling never makes a doubled die. Only a doubled die, can create a doubled die. ( Machine Doubling on a doubled die is not preferred to mist buyers as it is a distraction on the doubled die they desire) CoopHome: Why is Machine Doubling not desired on a doubled die to a serious variety collector?

COOP is 100% right when say MD is more significative and happened more on large coins. You have a massive MD very educational from the point of the mint production. The Denver production in 70's is famous for MD due to an no correct alignment of the presses. if you look at the observe you will see the Rims are not center. In those years only very few Denver was correct align; and the rest produce a lot MD.

Thank you all for letting me know what type of coin this is, and my goal is to possibly actually find a real DDO or DDR, and that would be awesome and if anyone has one I could purchase possibly so I can study it, in person please let me know, as I haven't seen one in real life yet, and that's my dream, too get one and study it so I can gain some knowledge on it, that would be so cool, and thank you all for your expertise on error coins, I just love looking for possible errors, and that's why I'm asking if anyone has one to offer, and if not that's fine too, I'll keep looking no matter what as long as I got you guys here to help me, lol |

Step-like appearance - classic MD. 2x2 worthy for a fine example of it.

Thank you for sharing this and all the comments. I save everyone time by not posting mine. I found a few of these MDs, including a bicentennial one. I'll treat them kindly.  |
