[QUOTE="foundinrolls, post: 546675, member: 4350"]Hi, What you think of as doubled dies is likely what is known as machine doubling. A doubled die has a very specific look to it. The edge lettering can be placed on the circulation coins in any direction. It just depends on the orientation of the coin when it went through the edge lettering machine. No effort is made to have the lettering in any particular direction so theoretically, half will be one way and half will be the other way. Thanks, Bill[/QUOTE]
