<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2736475, member: 15199"]Most of the distortions that might look like doubled are from die deterioration or as most say, a well worn die. The edges of the letters and date and other devices on a working die start to wear or chip off on the edge, this depression then is pressed as a upraised piece of metal along the true edge, and this is seen by many as a DD!! but it isn't. It takes some time and practice and a lot of looking at real DD coin to see. Check the DD on Coppercoins. com and you will see examples. Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
