    Hi All!

    First post here so hoping to have some guidance.. Any thoughts this 2020 D Nickel? I have been looking at it for far too long and I am not sure if I am looking at doubling, MD or nothing on both the reverse and obverse? Its a 2020-D Nickel so not a ton of information out there that has been really helpful.. this is kinda throwing me for a loop though so any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    No worries! I'm still trying to figure out the different between the two.. I've read up on both but sometimes the MD just throws me. Appreciate it!

    Still a cool example of MD. I would stick it in a flip and hang onto it just for future reference.

    Hey @katiebell439, welcome to CT!! DDD or MD as mentioned above, not a true doubled die, very good example for future reference tho.
    Awesome pictures btw! :)

    It looks like die deterioration to me.

    As noted by our fellow enthusiasts, die deterioration and machine damage. You see evidence of both. The shelf-like appearance in the devices is evidence that the machine/equipment wobbled/bounced and burnished the devices. And the outer peripheral effect is the sign of an aged die. As things get older, they get sloppy and irregular. Welcome to CT!!

    You did the right thing by sealing it, it's a keeper, thanks for posting the coin.

    The die slipped when it was hubbed, that's all these single-hubbed "doubled dies" are, any such doubling is referenced as a "doubled die," though the "variety" is just from a slip or twist or bounce when the die was hubbed and is as impressive as a ball having taken a bad hop in the infield.
