<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1297535, member: 29239"]rockdude you may be forgetting to take into account that the coin we are discussing has had many years of wear and abuse from circulation. The doubling on these is very minor to start with and the normal use from circulation tends to obscure some of the doubling. the doubling on the die #3 coin you added the photo of is doubled weaker than the coin in this thread in my opinion. just forget about everything else except the U in trust and look directly at the center of the U and see if you can see the dividing line. If this old coin had not been worn out so much it probably would have been awesome. </p><p><br /></p><p>I admit that I have made mistakes in identifying coins correctly before and I'm sure all of us have including every expert that deals in error and variety coins , I may be wrong this time but don't think so.If I am wrong I will apoligize to everyone. I think it best when someone asks about a coin on here is to just say we don't know instead of saying it looks like MD. It would be bad for someone to discard a rare coin just because we tell them wrong. from now on I will not call a coin MD unless it is totally obivious in the photos or I have the coin in hand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
