Clwang Valued Member United States 336 Posts	Posted 07/29/2023 04:44 am Can someone explain the shadowing around everything on this coin? Weight 2.49g Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 07/29/2023 05:04 am That is a good question @clw. In the places where you can see the underlying zinc poking through the too-thin copper plating, you have split-plate doubling. In other places, like the date, it looks more like DDD to me.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 07/29/2023 11:01 am See how it it all trending towards the rim around the coin? This is an indicator of DDD. Collecting since 1972.
