Sander Pillar of the Community Netherlands 561 Posts	Posted 07/07/2011 09:25 am Found this Luxembourg 1 Franc 1964 coin today.. Can't figure out what kind of doubling this is.. Think it's not "md".. So I'm looking for some input on this one.. Thanks in advance.. edit: Have 2nd thoughts, maybe it is just strong "md" Edited by Sander 07/07/2011 10:19 am Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 07/07/2011 12:23 pm The doubling on the date area appears to be cut in from striking damage (MD), and not double-hubbed. Constrast this with my favorite doubled date I own--from a doubled die, not repunching like the normal for the 19th C. Report this Post to the Staff

Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 07/07/2011 1:42 pm What I mean by that, is if it's not MD, then I would say Die Deterioration - certainly not a doubled die or a highly desirable type of doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
