Cointree Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 06/18/2023 11:50 pm This doesn't look like anything I have seen nor do I think it matches identified varieties, therefore I would lean towards fairly strong MD on the date. Do you see doubling on any other letters on the obverse, for instance in IGWT? Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95029 Posts	Posted 06/19/2023 1:03 pm I'll have to agree with MD on the date here. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 06/19/2023 11:58 pm "MD" = Machine Doubling, a common feature caused by die movement during the striking process. It can look fairly dramatic but is not considered an error or variety and usually carries no premium value. Your coin provides a decent illustration of Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
