Dearborn Moderator United States 95517 Posts	Posted 07/30/2024 1:22 pm on the split plating on the MM, possible lighting glare on the motto. Collecting since 1972.

Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 07/30/2024 2:46 pm Note: another thing to consider on Proof Coins, they are struck at least 2 times and under close magnification sometimes they can show very slight doubling as in OP's photos. Still just considered Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/30/2024 3:01 pm Agree, just split plating. Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 07/31/2024 10:08 pm Note proofs are usually struck more than once. I agree with the MM showing split plating, but I find the plating disturbance North and West of the MM as something not seen everyday. Seems like the plating stuck to the die or was sucked up as the die retracted. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8744 Posts	Posted 07/31/2024 10:49 pm Looks like many of the things are going on that have been mentioned by others. Split plating, MD and maybe lighting issues but something else is happening here. Not sure when it happened, because it is obviously slabbed and could have been done outside of the mint but there is damage to the mint mark. Very easily seen with a pic from VV beside of the OP's coin. The majority of what is going on with the mm has nothing to do with MD. -makecents- Edited by -makecents- 07/31/2024 10:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
