Dearborn Moderator United States 94728 Posts	Posted 01/07/2025 5:05 pm MD noted, but what do you mean that the rim is cracked? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6452 Posts	Posted 01/07/2025 11:42 pm The reverse looks like Die Deterioration Doubling to me, spreading towards the eagle. It could also be Machine Doubling, as people have pointed out. To me, it looks more melty than structured, which suggests DDD. The obverse looks like MD. That crevice through the reeds is interesting. Usually scratches just run across the surface. Given the uneven appearance and the way the metal is pressed together, I'm wondering if there isn't a slight delamination between the 80/20 silver/copper cladding layer and the coin's core.
