Maybe the combination of die deterioration doubling and MD is throwing them off. There is no notching on the letters, the supposed doubling...
Pie cutter. I think that's so cool that people used coins back then for alternate uses such as cutting pies...

Looks like zinc rot...not a cud or die chip.
You'll have to be more specific. I don't see anything out of the ordinary with the coin...

I'm kind of confused by this post. Maybe I need to clarify...the top of the 5 on YOUR coin is PMD. The 1956D repunched date is in my opinion die...

Could be a minor lam peel that flaked off of the 9.
Actually, rascal, according to Wexler... It is also on error-ref.com... So there are NO repunched dates after 1909 for US coinage. There ARE...
It is die deterioration doubling. Besides the fact that the mint stopped repunching the date after 1909, a repunching would show notching, and...
Never seen anything quite like it before, but maybe it's just some counterstamp?

Separate names with a comma.
