<p>[QUOTE="Chip Baker, post: 1962258, member: 57387"]o.k. I had already seen the link to the doubled 1942 obverse. I had spent several hours searching the net for a reference to this type of multiple die mark. This coin I don't think would fall under any of them for several reasons. None of the letters are doubled. The multiple die marks are on the profile only. And they are triple struck. not doubled. Of all the 1942 posts I have found, including all the recognized and reference number given, this one is unlike any of them. Any doubling that is referenced for this year coin is not on this particular coin. I have never personally seen, even under my stereoscope triple die marks quite like this. Especially when it is only multiple struck on a certain portion of it. Like this profile alone. Normally you will see indications on other parts of the coin. If it does not have any of the doubling that is referenced to, how would this coin fall as far as next step? I am thinking it needs to be Acknowledged by someone like PCGS or NGC as to the classification. I just hate to send it in if someone else has seen this before. Or it is more common than I am thinking. Any more help would be VERY much appreciated <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Thanks guys![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
