[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 2544617, member: 21705"][ATTACH=full]545784[/ATTACH] This is the obverse rotated to match up with the Reverse. I'm using the rim damage to align the obverse. There is a feint double image both in front and behind the profile and I'm trying to see if the stuff going on under the chin is a clash mark or more doubling. Like other series, doubling can be cause either by the die or by mechanical means during the strike. I believe there is also a third method which causes a very light doubling, but which I cannot remember right now. But if it is a clash mark, it should line up with the reverse used at the time the clash occurred. I'm not certain of the exact location of the clash marks Breen described as "double clash marks before and behind the neck" on his die State S-92 State I and our 7.02. This particular coin is called NC-1 Die State II which should be the same as S-92 Die State II or our 7.03. I'm looking for markers to find the best example of die state 7.02 which should have the clash marks without the development of the spike on the 9 of die state 7.03. I'm hoping to determine whether the clash marks are from reverses H or I or both.[/QUOTE]
