Doubled Dies are created during the die manufacturing process - Mechanical Doubling is created during the coin striking (coin manufacturing)...
Never mind My Bad - Talking Close "AM" - Wide "AM" had my brain thinking Cents - USA is part of the obverse design for State Quarters.
I don't know but weren't the State Quarters designed on a computer using CNC to produce the hub? If so - it wouldn't surprise me to find the...
