Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 05/24/2023 7:23 pm Yes--recall that Machine Doubling is step-like in appearance and serves to reduce the width of the design elements (just like on this coin).

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 05/24/2023 10:06 pm If I have to see only the inner design without rims, I was say it is a proof coin. This coin was struck with brain new Die from the newer Hub of 1977. What it is interesting for me it is the Anvil move and not the Hammer. Some toning from the storage. To have this Phil, me I will certify. Must reach 66 easy. Report this Post to the Staff

Don't they retire dies sometimes if they have a collar clash? The collar clash has many forms of clash. I think you has to go to error-ref.com and refresh your knowledge on this topic and also how the die struck and what struck on a planchet. This was a new pair of Dies use. Analyze the design and the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
