It happens when the die is made as you said. It used to be that when the Mint made a die - the die was pressed into the hub to form the image. Then the die was heated and softened and then pressed a second time into the hub. But during the second pressing - if the die and hub were not aligned exactly as they were for the first pressing - then a doubled die would occur.</p><p><br /></p><p>It should also be noted that doubling can occur anywhere on the coin - not just in the legends.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
