Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73747 Posts	Posted 01/09/2026 9:44 pm That's actually Die Deterioration Doubling. Both dies were wearing out when they struck your coin. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 01/10/2026 12:20 am Agree with the above. Machine Doubling tends to be in a single direction. Die Deterioration can be either in a single direction (usually towards the rim or major die cavities like the bust), or it can be in all directions. That melted butter look is classic DDD.
