Jakescoin New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 07/20/2022 5:32 pm I couldn't find any DDO varieties on vista. Seems like there is something going on with Abe's eye (right in front of pupil and maybe coming out above eyelid). Also his lapel seems like it may have doubling north/south. Pretty sure the other stuff on "America" and "liberty" is md. But would love to hear some more thoughts on these areas. Thanks for looking! Report this Post to the Staff

Jakescoin New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 07/20/2022 7:48 pm Thanks for the replies! I agree that most is Machine Doubling, but the eye part still has me wondering a little bit. No"eyedea" what else it could be though. Report this Post to the Staff

Jakescoin New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 12:21 pm Die gouge sounds like a good possibility. I've read something about "alligator eye" but that's on Morgan's... Don't know if there's been any on pennies Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 12:43 pm Because of the die polishing, this can weaken the sub lower devices on the the design. It is not mentioned as it was part of the normal design. The reverse devices are showing Die wear on the outer edges of the devices/or almost a plating split on that area. (Not DDD yet as this is not a single squeeze die yet) Note the right side of the building is starting to show split plating. Just a normal circulated cent. Report this Post to the Staff

Jakescoin New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 07/23/2022 3:20 pm Cujohn I was thinking it almost looks like a raised line is piercing the eyelid. In front of eye and pointing out of the top of the eyelid Report this Post to the Staff
