chugly Valued Member United States 234 Posts	Posted 12/07/2010 3:11 pm Really nice examples of Machine Doubling. Any time you see doubling on both the date and mint mark for pre 1990 coins (your 1968-s example), it is a sure sign of Machine Doubling. The shelf like appearance of the doubling is also a dead give away. Try to compare these examples with photo's of true doubled dies and you can start to learn the differences.

Snazzypit Valued Member United States 71 Posts	Posted 12/07/2010 3:21 pm Thanks for you help. I think I am starting to see the difference. True doubling isn't as flat as Machine Doubling it seems. I know Machine Doubling doesn't hold much value but these both seem to have a tremendous amount of doubling which is why I thought at $1 each, why not add em to the collection. I like to collect the errors which you don;t have to squint into a loop to see, and both of these can be seen with the naked eye. Report this Post to the Staff
