    Can you post a photo and also weigh it?

    It might be plated.

    It depends on what it's plated with.
    If it's plated with steel it can. ;)

    For some reason I don't think the OP will read that reply to his thread. He has three posts - all in this thread - and he has not signed on to Coin Talk in over 6 years.

    Wow.. Create your own unique separate thread.
    Pictures or your Doubled Die does not exist..

    The correct numismatic terminology is Doubled Die.. not double die.
