<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SorenCoins, post: 4686222, member: 73708&quot;]This thread became way too escalated on both sides. There&#039;s no need to take it to that point.</p><p><br /></p><p>My <u>opinion</u>: The image you sent of &quot;TRUST&quot; was very helpful. I believe I can see where you believe you see the doubling. That appears to be die deterioration doubling. For this variety, I always find the tops of the U in TRUST to be a very helpful pickup-point. They will look split. On your coin, however, the tops of both Us appear to move towards the rim. That is very indicative of a die that is becoming deteriorated. Die characteristics are not a good way to base a variety off of. There are many combinations of die pairings and in modern coinage it is very hard to know everything about the dies. Die characteristics should only be used as an affirmation once you see the variety. They should not be used to find the variety. Also, look at the right &quot;arm&quot; of the T in TRUST. That does not show the same doubling as is on the PCGS coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are convinced, then keep it. That&#039;s fine. We are just giving you our opinion. Likewise, if you want to keep it, it is not up to other CT members to tell you what you can and can not keep. I would not save it, but you can do whatever you want!</p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
