[QUOTE="JerryK, post: 620923, member: 19223"]Thanks for the info and for not laughing at me! ha. I think I got it down what to look for after reading up on how to tell the difference. The Machine Doubling will flatten the image underneath, but leave the top image raised... whereas true die doubling will leave both raised. Sound right? I could tell the date was Machine Doubled because of that and also because the mint mark was doubled. What peaked my interest was the word 'Trust', whose doubling didn't look like the others. But I need a better scan. Anyways, it sure is fun looking (but addicting)! I've been through about 1000 coins so far with 2000 to go. This was the best error example I have found so far. Although I did find a couple 1960-D & 1980-D errors. I'll post them later. Thanks! Jerry Edit: Check out the 'R' & 'U' in the word trust. You can see the valley's between the doubling. It almost looks like the die twisted.[/QUOTE]
