<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1983328, member: 15199"]Looking at the 'N' and the 'M' in UNUM for example, the bases appear to extend, but with decreasing height. If they were the same height, they would appear the same photographically as the main body of the letter. This 'smear' effect, going from the height of the main letter to the bottom level ( field) is an indication of MD. It is very hard to confirm a true doubled die from blurry or badly lighted photos, but since true doubling is much rarer than MD, a photo needs to show it perfectly to be identified.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
