I don't understand a lot of things about errors in general.

So I know that machine doubling is the die, slightly shifted while the planchet is being struck.
The doubled die, is when the die is being pressed with the design, and the die itself shifts, so parts of the lettering, or other parts of the design get doubled on the die, and that transfers over to the planchet
So now, I am just trying to tackle the difference between the Longacre Doubling and Doubled Die
If you go back to the machine doubling vs doubled die thread there are some good pics of true doubled die coins to look at the difference.
