    I was browsing ebay and came across a 1843 G Saxony 2 Pfennig, as I inspected it, I found multiple places where the coin seems to be doubled.

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAXONY-1-Pf...137?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43abbbdf31

    The most notable places are the 'K' and 'S' on the reverse and 'NNIG' on the obverse. My question: Is this a true doubled die, or simply Die Deteriation, or Strike Doubling?

    I don't have any experience with these so please go easy on me :)

    Thanks!

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    Looks like machine doubling to me. I only see it on the K and S on the reverse and IG on the obv.
