    i couldn't find info on any 73 ddr's, anyone care to give an opinion on this one.
    i would appreciate it.
    I'm looking at the lower letters where i drew on the lines.
    at last min. i also noticed a little on the bottom feathers, didn't seem common to others i have.

    thanks to all who commented on other questions. kennedy half 73 d rev 1.jpg kennedy half 73 d rev 2.jpg kennedy half 73 d rev 3.jpg

    What you see is machine doubling which is typically "flat and shelf-like". It is fairly common to all denominations and is not worth a premium.

    Thanks Chris, i had a feeling that was going to be the response i would get. so how can you determine the difference? i've really been struggling to determine, i would like to be able to know and not bother posting pics for help. Thanks.

    The CherryPicker's Guide to Die Varieties
    has a great section in the appendix about
    the different types of doubling - and how
    to tell a doubled die from mechanical/ejection
    doubling.

    It's a great book to begin with, but it's especially
    important for beginning die variety collectors.
