[QUOTE="Treashunt, post: 173530, member: 6763"]Tom: There are five listed double die obverses listed by Richard Snow. Two, S-4 and S-15 show doubling on the eagle's eye. The others show minor doubling in United, America and (#3)= Uni and Stat. None of the doubling is visable in a photo like the one that you show, you would have to use microphotographs to show the doubling. Frank: I can't see the doubling on the date that you mention, but if it is there, it would not be a part of the doubled die, since the date was punched in separately on each die and not part of the original die preparation. The date 'doubling' would be a repunched date. This is not to say that it is not repunched, but Snow does not list one, but, I have found repunched dates in different series that are not listed in any reference books. The Other Frank[/QUOTE]
