rockdude Pillar of the Community United States 1807 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 11:53 am I have this 1955D with what looks like Die Deterioration. What do you think? Ignore the pointer. Edited by rockdude 04/18/2009 11:54 am Report this Post to the Staff

oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 11:57 am I believe that this is called Strike Doubling, notice the flat surfaces on the lower portions of the numerals? ...although it might be Die Deterioration. I have a 1960 Nickle which was classified as such, and the numerals and legends had the shelf-like appearance all around them, not just on one side (mine could be a later stage of deterioration, whilst your could be an earlier stage). Still a nice conversation piece . success, Edited by oih82w8 04/18/2009 12:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 1:26 pm Congrats! Can't hurt to eliminate other causes too. When I saw the relief on the doubling of the 1 and the separation on the 9, I knew you had something... Report this Post to the Staff
