ThePhiladelphiaPenny Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I don't think so. It looks more like machine doubling to me. Just caused by a loose die. Nice coin though! GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Neophyte Numismatist Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I agree - it looks like mechanical/machine doubling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powermad5000 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Even though there is wear on this coin, I do not see split serifs and the secondary image is not at the same height as the primary image. My vote is in the camp with the others that it is strike/mechanical doubling and also agree it was probably a loose die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
