This cent got my attention before I took a glass to it.
I know it appears to be machine doubling.
Yet, on the lettering of United I see lines about half way up the letters of T, E, and D. I did not think this would fall into the machine doubling category.
Also, along the edge of the memorial and the top of the first column there is 'doubling'.
I do not know if the pictures will show exactly what I am trying to explain.
But I am going to give it a try.
After reviewing the information from the koinpro website linked at the beginning of this thread, I'm still not sure how to identify the type of doubling on a 1993 p quarter pictured below. My guess would be a worn die. The p mint mark is very weak and the IN in IGWT appears to be raised above the rest of the motto, could be just has an extra raised area surrounding it due to die damage. Could someone please post an opinion?
