Yes, you are correct, but it has a tiny bit of value - 1 cent if zinc, or maybe a few cents (melt) if copper. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

FlapSlapClap New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 12/19/2025 01:45 am The reason I thought it was dd was because the doubling seemed to be consistent on the right sides of the letter as the right side of the memorial and also the S at the top. Is Machine Doubling often consistent like that? Report this Post to the Staff

Machine Doubling doesn't really have a "standard" - that is why you have to be able to tell the characteristics of it. https://doubleddie.com/144822.html Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94705 Posts	Posted 12/19/2025 8:29 pm yep, nice image. On the MD one you can see how the device is reduced in size. Collecting since 1972.

Is Machine Doubling often consistent like that? So yes, to answer your question, there are several different types of Machine Doubling, but this is probably the most common, all in on direction. One direction link. https://www.error-ref.com/multiple-...e-direction/ But as I said, there are several different types. If you look at the pics Marve put up, they will typically fall in line with those basic features, regardless of the type of MD it is. MD usually cuts off the original size of the device, which is the thing you need to look for. It's a bit aggravating, but if you give it time you will catch on. All of the Machine Doubling types. https://www.error-ref.com/?s=machine+doubling+ -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
