<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 3641325, member: 15199&quot;]Davey, you have fallen under the &quot; Markers&quot; falsehood. In the mint process for this coin&#039;s era,&nbsp; a blank working die ( the one that makes 100,000 or so cents) is pressed against a transfer die that imprint the design in what is called a hubbing process into the blank working die ( twice for your coin) so it could make those cents. If there was misalignment a doubled die could occur such as the &#039;58-001&#039;, those would be the rare DDO we are referring to. But that only occurred rarely, as most working dies for the other millions of coins would have been transferred correctly, no DD. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Now here is where you got stuck. Every working die made from the same transfer die would have the same markers possibly, but not the DD as that is a hubbing process. So find the doubling first and if it looks right, compare the markers. Most DD do not require matching with markers as they are obvious. Good Luck, Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
