    Recently I started a thread showcasing a 1978-D Ike Dollar with strong machine doubling on the reverse (USA). So I re-checked some of my Morgan and Peace dollars, and low and behold, I found some.

    This doubling shows in LIBERTY on the Peace Dollars and in USA on the reverse of the Morgans.

    I can see what looks like machine doubling on the N in ONE. Is this what you're referring to?

    Plus, there looks like some on the leg feathers.

    Notice the radial lines near the rim on some of the coins? It looks the dies have seen a lot of use. IMO, I would say it was Die Deterioration Doubling.

    DDD and MD are caused by different mechanisms. However, in the grand scheme of things, both are considered No Value Doubling, so I don't think it is a big deal if there is a disagreement regarding which type it is.

    Thanks. There also appear to be some on the leg feathers. I realize this is a no value condition, As long as it doesn't reduce value I'm OK with it.
