    I have 2 of these greek coins but this one has doubling on both sides. Could this be a doubled die or what I think is a double pressed coin. What do you all think it is.

    Greeks don't have no doubled dies. Really, I'm just seeing some reflection of the light.

    Maybe. Can you take a close-up photo of these three letters?

    I agree with closeups of those three letters in particular. There looks to be some possible extra thickness consistent with a doubled die, especially on that ∆.

    Without clearer, perpendicular phtos, it's hard to tell. But I don't think it's a doubled die .. more probably mechanical/machine doubling or die deterioration doubling

    Then you're not looking close enough cause every part of it's design is doubled and yes my phone takes photos like a old beta tape played movies off colors, grainy picture but what looks like shadows is really some kind of doubling
