<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 8216853, member: 44316&quot;]When an ancient coin shows doubling the thought that leaps to mind is &quot;double strike.&quot; The die bounced a bit on the strike or maybe it was actually struck twice with the die not perfectly aligned the second time. However, with US coins showing doubling all I ever hear about is &quot;double die.&quot;&nbsp; So dies are sometimes struck by the hub twice, which can make doubling, but coins are never subject to the same error? Why can&#039;t US coins be double <b>struck</b>? Why can US coin <b>dies</b> be double struck when US coins can&#039;t?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
