Sannys25 Valued Member United States 145 Posts	Posted 01/10/2025 6:29 pm I do not think this is a double die. I wanted to see if the left side of the "1" is just Machine Doubling and maybe the 4 Is maybePMD... I don't see any Doubling around the eyelid, but just wanted to throw it in there in case one of you guys think something's going on. Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8726 Posts	Posted 01/10/2025 6:49 pm I will have to investigate the vertical line in the 1 and not sure if the 4 is just damage but the area you are pointing to under the 1 is master die doubling or a doubled hub, can't remember which but not hub doubling. ADDED: I'm seeing the area you are pointing out on the 4 in multiple pics I have looked at, so thinking it to is a master die doubling or a doubled hub and the more I look at the vertical line in the 1, makes me think it is "chipping" in the die. So, in my opinion, nothing special going on here. -makecents- Edited by -makecents- 01/10/2025 7:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sannys25 Valued Member United States 145 Posts	Posted 01/11/2025 11:27 am @makecents - so the vertical line on the "1" is from a die chip vs MD? The die (over time) just gets beaten down, which creates a little wiggle room in there to create the line? Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8726 Posts	Posted 01/11/2025 6:35 pm Yes, it does not look like MD at all to me. I've got arrows pointing at the area that looks chipped out, from the right to the center, leaving what looks like a line on the left side, where it's lower. And unless they shared working dies, which is not unheard of, the area under the 1 is from a doubled master die, I have seen it on other mm coins. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
