<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 5288560, member: 15199&quot;]The &quot;class 9 Doubled dies&quot; and other &quot;smeared die doubling&quot; , &quot;Stuttered die doubling&quot; . etc. was ( IMO). to allow certain &quot;verification ,naming, and listing&quot; magazines and internet posters, to continue their markets. A stuttered , vibrating , or slipped die causing effect is due to Machine action and not a die squeezing error by a human mint worker which was not caught by a mint examiner, as are all real doubled die up to that time. I suspect the mint realized it was in their favor so they could keep making ........... and people would take it out of circulation and not spend it , so they can make more.&nbsp; Perhaps next will be the acceptance of hand stamps of facial outlines, social organizations, states ,. struck by a hammer and punch, so clearly a &quot;doubled die&quot;.&nbsp; If they would call it anything other than a doubled die. fine!, but it will never be one, IMO, I realize many disagree and thats OK, but newcomers should not be sucked into such and believe they are of same rarity and value as 1-8.</p><p>IMO, Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
