In order from left to right, that's an L, D and W.

 

That is Mechanical Doubling.. Not Hub Doubling.. So not a Doubled Die. The famous 1969 S Doubled Die has to look exactly like the picture I provided you not just parts of it.

 

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I thought he wanted to know why there were yellow arrows on the coin.

What am I seeing there? Is it nothing?

 

One step ahead of ya.

 

There are yellows arrows.

 

Die chatter or ejection doubling. It is like the die shifted a small amount as the coin was being ejected from the press after being struck. Very common occurrence, and no two will be exactly the same. Doubled die strikes will all be identical unless one happens to also have die chatter.

 

Thank you very much.

 

You keep showing the same style of doubling over and over, getting the same response, over and over. Don't you think that maybe, just maybe you would have a handle on Machine doubling by now? And be able to identify it yourself? Maybe start looking for something that looks different than the examples you keep posting?

 

Today our fathers, birthdays . and as promised .

I'm headed to dads, taking him out to eat .
Have a great night too . Chris ...

 

Give your father my regards!

Yes, I shall. As a matter of fact, I do have this coin I was wondering about.
