When the die was made, the working hub was shifted slightly causing doubling on the working die. This didn't happen very often and that's why...
While the die breaks are cool, it's still considered a minor error. Experienced collectors are not usually interested in purchasing something...
Objectively look at the edge and reeding adjacent to the affected area. If you see any indication of it being out of round, thinner than the rest...

A Doubled Die occurs during the die making process as the working hub is slightly misaligned during one or more of the multiple pressings needed...
The appearance is called environmental damage. If you go through the steps of the minting process, there really isn't a reasonable explanation of...
Here is a link to that group. I received an update last week, so they still must be active...
