    There was a thread a while back on the PCGS boards where I mentioned seeing coins with both strike doubling and repunched mint marks. This one on a Morgan dollar crossed my desk last night, and it's a doozie! 1884-CC VAM 5 has a repunched CC, which you can see at the yellow arrows. This coin is also strongly strike doubled in this area, flattening the mint mark and letters DO on the left side, as indicated by the cyan arrows. I see coins all the time that someone asserts has a repunched mint mark, but the smashed doubling that is duplicated on other elements demonstrates that it's not.
