SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 7:26 pm Looks more like Die Deterioration Doubling than Machine Doubling to me, but could be elements of both. Regardless, no value above face, sadly. Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4395 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 7:39 pm I second Die Deterioration Doubling. Certainly not a doubled die. Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 8:55 pm Doesn't DDD always go toward the rim? Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6463 Posts	Posted 08/30/2023 10:29 pm If we are to be consistent about our conclusions, then it should be diagnosed as Die Deterioration Doubling. The reverse is definitely DDD, we have seen that on quite a number of nickels. Cujohn, several folks here have asserted that DDD can also move towards the center on certain coins. I would find that plausible on the nickel reverse, for example, because the Monticello device is a huge cavity on the die. I would actually like to know that for certain, since it seems to come up fairly often on current coins, and on nickels in particular. Report this Post to the Staff
