<p>[QUOTE=&quot;justafarmer, post: 2174240, member: 3926&quot;]It really doesn’t matter whether modern doubled dies are actually doubled dies or not.&nbsp; The general coin collecting community currently recognizes them as such, so at this point in time that is what they are. Just as the coin collecting community generally accepts the 1937-D 3 legged Buffalo Nickel, 1922 no D Cent, the 1982 O/S Morgan Dollar and other such coinage as die varieties when more than likely technically they are not does not diminish their value or demand as it now stands.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coin collecting is a dynamic hobby with perceptions and points of view constantly changing. As it stands today die doubling produced using the single squeeze process are doubled dies but tomorrow that may or may not be the case.</p><p><br /></p><p>Still even at that – single squeeze doubling does produce a unique characteristic that allows attributing the coin to the specific working die that struck it. In most cases from that die’s first coinage strike to it’s last. This I do not think will change with time.</p><p><br /></p><p>But as I stated in an earlier post in this thread. From my collecting perspective the true value of a doubled die isn’t the fact the die is doubled, it is the fact that the doubling is a unique characteristic that allows a person to attribute the coin to the specific working die that struck it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
