<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 26516042, member: 104064&quot;]I don&#039;t understand. If a die was first hubbed to the Beer Belly B hub (1908 design), the area shaded in blue would be raised on the die (as well as everything else within the cyan outline). If that die was subsequently hubbed to the Regular B (1909 design), that hub has a flat/field area where the blue shaded area is, and it would smash that raised area on the die, while also trying to raise the red-shaded area onto the die (as well as everything else within the red outline). Where the red and cyan outlines overlap would not get removed from the die because that overlap area is incuse on both hubs. The die is left with that thin piece we see on the Broken BBB coins. Which I think is what [USER=1765]@messydesk[/USER] already said, above. </p><p><br /></p><p>The question for me, as I said above, is why there are no undamaged BBB coins in 1909 if the broken BBB is the result of design hub doubling. Maybe I just haven&#039;t found one, maybe the 1909-dated BBB hub also got damaged, maybe Barber just said &quot;make all the dies from this new Liberty hub&quot;?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
