<p>[QUOTE="beef1020, post: 3089944, member: 24544"]On a double die, the master hub makes two impressions on the die with a slight difference in rotation between the impressions. If that were to occur, and you could see the doubling at the beard, close to the center of the die, what would you expect to see further out from the center of the die, a larger spread between die elements, the same spread, or a smaller spread?

[QUOTE="beef1020, post: 3089944, member: 24544"]On a double die, the master hub makes two impressions on the die with a slight difference in rotation between the impressions. If that were to occur, and you could see the doubling at the beard, close to the center of the die, what would you expect to see further out from the center of the die, a larger spread between die elements, the same spread, or a smaller spread? Another way to think about it, if you have a wheel with a radius of 1 foot and a wheel with a radius of 2 feet, and turn each wheel 90 degrees, which wheel goes further? This idea is represented in the attached photo, look how the spread of the doubling changes as you move away from the center of the die, from Y to L in liberty, and from 1 to 9 in the date: [ATTACH=full]779489[/ATTACH] So if you are seeing doubling near the center of a coin, it will be exaggerated out near the edges. Congrats on the new puppies, hope shes doing ok! I have a mastiff/collie mix[/QUOTE]
