4 of these arrived today and I saw something interesting. Perhaps machine doubling or maybe slight movement during a second strike as I don't know for sure since these die's, from what I understand, are machined individually. Granted, I've seen some weird machine doubling and, truth be told, the SAE isn't immune to machine doubling but, I just wanted to share since these will, without a doubt, show up on eBay as DDO's. Thoughts? Coin #1 Coin #2 Coin #3 The anomaly is less apparent on this and the last coins.
Looks interesting; let's see what others chime in with. Why wait for them to show up when you can set the market for them now
Haven't had a chance to look at mine yet. I'll let you know if something interesting appears on mine (but that don't usually happen, at least with me).
Hard to tell from the pictures, are you sure it is machine doubling? Silver eagles are not immune to doubled dies... http://www.varietyvista.com/Variety Master Listings/Silver Bullion Doubled Dies.htm I also have a 2007 W which seems to have doubling on it, however I found none like it when I researched. Then it went into the 'look at again later' box.....along with a couple of hundred other coins. Perhaps take pictures from different angles?
Just whipped mine out. I see some MD on date, none on the stars, but E Pluribus Unum has some MD also.
I never called it a "discovery" and do not intend on pursuing it any further than simply sharing what I saw which I clearly stated was unusual for machine doubling or perhaps remnants from movement during a second strike. Simple sharing. Nothing more and nothing less.
