bill069 Pillar of the Community United States 608 Posts	Posted 10/06/2010 5:52 pm Tell me what you think of the doubling of the reverse. The doubling starts with the last T in States and continues thru "of America" and "Half Dollar". I hope the photos are good enough. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 10/06/2010 7:26 pm Just my uninformed opinion...Looks like MD. The doubling looks to be flat/shelf like and I do not see any notching. Be sure to let one of the experts give their opinion. Just my 2 cents. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/07/2010 05:14 am Die movement. This happens a lot on the larger planchet coins. Or commonly called Machine Doubling. Nothing is actually doubled, just pushed during the strike. On a doubled die the devices would be doubled. On Machine Doubling they are just damaged during the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
