CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 6:58 pm So the obverse rim is what initially caught my eye, with the extra line in the rim, on the west side. But then if you look at the opposite side of the reverse, it has a lil extra hanging around that rim as well, just not as strong. Also, since there's no listing for any DDR's for this year & mint on CC, I'm assuming this must be Machine Doubling on the reverse, despite it looking to enlarge the elements, which caught my naked eye!?! Grrr! Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8761 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 7:10 pm Given the obverse and revers pics, I would say a slight off center strike, not a misaligned strike and the reverse looks to be MD. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 7:32 pm But that would typically happen on the same side of the coin, huh makecents? Report this Post to the Staff

I have no clue what you mean by that. Explain. Which are you talking about, a misaligned die or off center? -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74354 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 9:15 pm I'm thinking Misaligned Dies on both sides. Machine Doubling on the reverse as well. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Tunnioc Pillar of the Community United States 3179 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 10:05 pm I think E&V has it correct. Report this Post to the Staff
CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 10/10/2024 08:32 am Sorry, just got back online, but makecents, I was saying, when it's an off center strike, wouldn't the effects be seen on the same side? Like both on the east, or both on the west? This coin has the effects seen on opposite sides Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8761 Posts	Posted 10/10/2024 09:11 am E&V may be correct, CCB420. I have called out the possibility of a "Dual Misalignment Of Both Dies" a few times but was wrong every time. Maybe Mike Diamond can weigh in on this one. The information that Halo asked for would probably help. I did a side by side to show it a little better.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8761 Posts	Posted 10/10/2024 09:47 am Here are a few links I found that have threads related to the off center strike against Dual Misalignment Of Both Dies. I'm guessing that Dual Misalignment is not as common as off center strikes.

CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 10/10/2024 3:51 pm And halo, I can't find any kind of micrometer to get an accurate width, but just at a glance, doesn't appear to be anything crazy happening on the edges Report this Post to the Staff
