macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5832 Posts	Posted 06/28/2010 2:02 pm TreasHunt, You maybe right except for the designer initial that looks DD to me. 98% sure. Also there's enough notching on the 4 of the date that show me it can be a DD. I will send this and some other ones maybe to ANACS or NGC to them to get it certify, hopefully some will come back as what I believe to be the real thing. Report this Post to the Staff

TreasHunt Pillar of the Community United States 2540 Posts	Posted 06/29/2010 05:41 am Mac Well good luck, I hope it is a DDO. Report this Post to the Staff
Dcreek1968 Valued Member United States 314 Posts	Posted 07/02/2010 09:09 am Don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but this looks like " Strike Doubling" to me. A very common phenom among Merc's. Hope I'm wrong. The foot of the "L" in liberty might be the only thing leading me to believe otherwise. Report this Post to the Staff
Dcreek1968 Valued Member United States 314 Posts	Posted 07/23/2010 2:32 pm Mac, yours definitely looks to me like hub doubling, but then again I'm not holding the coin in my hand. I'll work on the pics issue, your pics are much better than mine. Will resubmit to the forum when I think I'm there. Thanks for looking at mine. As an aside, I've seen enough Strike Doubling vs hub doubling to know the difference in 99% of the cases. Hope yours is certified and when and if it it, please let us all know. Thanks again.
