[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 3036629, member: 41219"]Hello All, There have been a lot of threads recently with people asking if their coin is doubled or not and 9 times out of 10 it turns out to be MD. I found this coin today in a box I was searching and decided that I would share it with you all so that you could see an actual example of a doubled die. It isn't the "most exciting" doubled die out there but it IS a true doubled die. Notice how the doubling "adds" to the design. It doesn't take away from it. None of the motto in this case is any smaller for the doubling. All the doubling takes place to the left of the letters in the motto. Also notice how there isn't any "shelf" or "flat shelf-like" area in the doubling. It is its own independent design element...for lack of a better term. Hopefully this helps you all. If I made things more confusing I apologize! Perhaps other more knowledgeable people will chime in. Thanks for looking! 1972D-1DO-002 [ATTACH=full]757430[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]757431[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
