coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/20/2009 9:57 pm If it were a doubled die, I guess the question would be: "What is doubled?" Doubled die enlarge the devices. Here is an example of one. Note the extra width of the letters and even the dots are egg shaped. Edited by coop 07/20/2009 9:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff
killians76 Pillar of the Community United States 986 Posts	Posted 07/20/2009 10:07 pm thanks coop but I was just suggesting that it might be a die variety between the two Report this Post to the Staff
MorgansRmine Pillar of the Community United States 1219 Posts	Posted 07/21/2009 06:36 am killians, the lettering is beveled toward center to allow easy release after striking. As the face of the die is polished down, the letters themselves become slightly smaller while the space between them becomes slightly larger. I don't see a variety here, just a well used die.
