That 55 ddo is gorgeous!
I always thought the master die was cut. That's why I was confused with the die process, until now. I knew I was missing a process :D Thanks guys.
Is thus the proper chain of events.... Master Die-Working Hubs-Working Dies ?
OT: When you say hub doubling, are you referring to the process of the making of the actual working hubs? I know the 1972 cent has a master hub...
When back to the deli from last week to pick up the remaining cents, $127 worth. I only did a very quick sort, where I put handfuls of coins on a...
non-cent, when was the last time your heard someone finding one?
In this $80 lot i picked up from a deli on saturday, so far I found a 1986s proof, 1998 WAM, 2000 WAM and this 2011p 1do-004!! I have about $7...
I think its possibly machine doubling, if not a plating issue. IN GOD WE TRUST is on a large radius, and all the "doubling" is to the north of the...
OT: I would say PMD. The 1997 ddo has a more pointy ear, than a generous curve on the bottom, almost like a cone shape to it.

Whats the theory on doubled dies since the single squeeze process? Dies were dropped? A shift of some sorts? This is a pretty big spread, and it...
Very fun lot so far. A deli Ive never been to has a 5 gallon bucket full of cents, plus he says he has buckets of nickels. I was on my way to the...
Thats a beauty. Where is Jim located?
And to be honest, that clash looks like where the neck and hair meet.
Could the hammer die been dropped on the advil die during assembly?
Not the best pictures, but I took pics from different lighting angles. Tell me hat you think. Thanks Clutchy [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
It's in a proof set, not the brown box. I noticed it this morning before heading to work, so I wasn't able to take pics. I will take pics tonight...
It kinda looks like this coin, but it has a split on the 7 (not sure if its called a serif, but its split on the tip of the top of the 7) and the...
Separate names with a comma.
