Gigi2 Valued Member United States 319 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 3:20 pm Testing my developing skills...or lack thereof. Does this dime show double die on the obverse? I'm looking specifically at the lettering ONE DIME. It's a 2016 D, Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19126 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 4:07 pm ONE DIME is on the reverse. From the images posted, I'm thinking a minor Die Deterioration issue. Lighting used in the photography may (may...) be introducing a pseudo doubling appearance. Report this Post to the Staff
Gigi2 Valued Member United States 319 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 4:12 pm Thanks sickpuppy. I thought double die was just one kind of error. Is Machine Doubling totally different? It will take me a while to absorb all the info sent on Machine Doubling. (Thanks for that BTW.) My lack of knowledge is obviously way worse than I imagined. Will keep plodding along and will try not to get discouraged. Report this Post to the Staff
sickpuppy78501 Pillar of the Community United States 599 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 4:43 pm No, Machine Doubling is just when the die bounces when it strikes the planchet and the planchet shifts a tiny bit. It's not the kind that makes coins worth a lot of money. But it's also possible Die Deterioration Doubling. Either way, your coin is worth no more than face value. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 5:36 pm There is more than 1 Machine Doubling. Keep at it, read and search as much as you can, you'll get it. Report this Post to the Staff
Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 5:40 pm Gigi2 click on " Machine Doubling" link above and study it well. It's the most common mistake made in coin collecting as in so many think it is an actual Doubled Die. Good Luck! Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73760 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 7:07 pm Might be Machine Doubling or Die Deterioration Doubling. I'm learning towards Die Deterioration Doubling. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
