Moonshine Valued Member United States 258 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 05:43 am Hi, Not sure if this help's After looking more, Seem's to be deterioration and early hit on D. Thank's for looking. IMG]http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/...6/70-d-2.jpg[/IMG Report this Post to the Staff
j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 06:38 am It looks like Machine Doubling to me. Howwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwever; can you take as close-up of image d-5 as d-3 and d-4 are? I'd like to see that "tail" on the "D" a little closer. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 09:15 am I agree on the Machine Doubling. The NW edge of the mint mark was probably higher on the coin and got distorted during the ejection process. The overall look of the mint mark is the same was normal and no marks inside the mint mark like you would expect to see on an RPM. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...d1mm001m.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...d1mm015m.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum..._049_LDS.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum..._1MM_001.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...ustrated.jpg what I see is shelf like doubling although not on the rest of the date. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...nt_Marks.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 10:39 pm Note on this RPM the rounded RPM and the loop in the center. This should be present on a RPM. http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=mds I don't see it on your coin. I just see Machine Doubling damage on the mint mark on the West edge of the upright.

j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 06/22/2010 07:45 am Thanks, Moonshine...I still cant figure out the marked difference between the images that solidly look like Machine Doubling and that one image where the "D" tails down below the "D" with no serif from which it doubled. That'll be a new MD style to me if that's what it is. I say keep it and continue asking the more-expert collectors until enough say it what it is. Report this Post to the Staff
