Second, can you please add the date and mint for this cent to the thread title or at least include that info somewhere? It helps with improving the CCF searching function. Thx.

Dearborn Moderator United States 97083 Posts	Posted 02/20/2023 09:44 am Seeing how the 'doubling' is trending towards the rim, think it is Die Deterioration. Collecting since 1972.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/20/2023 11:45 am Note how the affected areas of Machine Doubling, reduces the size of the devices. On doubled die, there will be spread showing the devices enlarged, not reduced. More information on this subject: http://goccf.com/t/440849#3797519 Report this Post to the Staff
