<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3739325, member: 66"]Just one. The "doubling" on split plate doubling is an illusion. As the coin is being struck the metal is expanding outward radially away from the center. Along the outer edges of the letter the plating can split from the expantion and the copper is carried outward exposing a "shadow" that appears like a doubled image at the outside of the letter. This "doubling" is NOT raised above the surface of the field.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
