<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pickin and Grinin, post: 3452955, member: 73995&quot;]You have it right it does look doubled but like Gem says it is not from Die Doubling. The doubling exists from over use of the die. What you see on your coin is designs that came about from over use. And is a form of split plate doubling. I have quite a few coins that look like that but every devise is split as you are seeing, Date liberty and Motto. Even Lincoln shows a double image. When looking at coins, defining a coin comes from the original new in use Die pairs, as that die wears it leaves distinct die markings, these are used to follow the pairing through it&#039;s use. </p><p><br /></p><p>Die pairings: Your new adventure in understanding this hobby,</p><p>Look it up and let us know what you come up with as the standard and truth.&nbsp; </p><p>This isn&#039;t a one day thing it may take you years to understand at which stage a coin still is a Variety or an Error.</p><p>Good luck and I hope you stick around to learn and eventually teach what is accepted. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie99" alt=":watching:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
