I paid a photographer to do that for me, but he charges so much that I have to abandon the others at the obverse (Francisco Caudillo Franco de Espana Por La G. de Dios). All have nice notchings prettier than its date.

 I would have also taken shots for free--just to see new doubled dies close up. This shows I need to pay closer attention to modern Norway coins. On the Spain 50 Ptas, the oval dots around the date also confirm a doubled die. |

Scooby Due, you were the first one to dive for help in reducing those pictures sizes. Shame for my lamed ignorance because I was not able to upload it with all your help. You don't have to say that; it is I who should with you.Thank you so much.

That one is nice! Interesting how the doubling fades towards the edge. I have seen that on a couple doubled dies I own too. I think it's due to the die blank having a conical shape when the first hubbing is done. The second, more complete hubbing impressed the whole die and produced a complete design. Here's a similar type of doubling seen on an Australia penny:  |

.. Found another one in the same bulk lot, this 1 cent 1937 is my first from the Netherlands.. It's minor, but I see clearly separation by the seven.. Have only problems to make a decent image right now.. Need daylight..
