jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 07/29/2022 01:12 am I don't see anything significant. Maybe a minute amount of DDD or MD. Suffering from bust half fever.

Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 07/29/2022 05:37 am On the bottom of the second U of UNUM, that looks like Machine Doubling to me. However, the die that was used to strike this coin was a little tired as well.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/29/2022 11:19 am That is extreme die wear. (Not DDD as this happens on the single squeeze dies on cents) The devices as they wear are marching towards the rim: On DDD the extreme die wear is see on the fields, not as much as on the devices. The taller profiles of the older die creation I feel is the reason why DDD only affects the fields first, and then the fields alter as it progresses towards Ridge Ring. This doesn't happen on the older style of the multi step die creation coins of the past. The devices march towards the closest rims. CoopHome: What is the difference between die wear and DDD on the single squeeze dies? Both die wear, DDD only happens on the single squeeze dies Edited by coop 07/29/2022 11:23 am Report this Post to the Staff
