[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 24886843, member: 106826"]A couple of things: [LIST=1] [*]Doubled die coins can be minted with late stage dies with significant deterioration. [*]They can also display machine damage. [/LIST] The designations given to attribute a coin do not transfer across years or mints. They are specific. If a designation seems to apply, it’s a good idea to include it for members to refer too. Your specimens display machine damage. I don’t see anything indicating true doubling. It’s also a good idea to suggest the class of doubling you think you might see. This also helps members to dial in. Also, PCGS doesn’t control what’s submitted or the minting process.
