I've always wondered why 99% of all Doubled Dies are on the Obverse of the coin and not the reverse . How is that ? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

VarietyVista.com listings clearly show nowhere near 99% I have never logged on to Variety Vista for errors or anything else , so it was just my thoughts that it would be 99% . Like I said ,I am not an error or variety collector . Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8775 Posts	Posted 12/10/2022 09:10 am I looked again for the info from Bob this morning and could not find it. While looking, my little brain remembered that the conversation was about why "Master Die Doubling" was mostly seen on the obverse, not just DDO's in general. The reason may be the same though. Sorry, it takes a minute for my "grey matter" to kick in sometimes now and getting worse as time goes on.... -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
