<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddiespin, post: 25021743, member: 4920&quot;]The thing about die doubling is it repeats on <i>every coin </i>stuck by that die. It appears exactly the same, factoring in any wear on the coin. It doesn&#039;t grow or evolve from coin to coin. That&#039;s why it&#039;s identifiable and collectable. When the doubling is due to the striking of the coin, that&#039;s from a normal die, and the movement of the planchet when it was struck by the normal die. These planchets will move some when they&#039;re not secured in the coining chamber. That kind of doubling, we call &quot;strike doubling,&quot; can be cool-looking, however, it&#039;s disparate, i.e., different on every coin, so there&#039;s nothing repeating to search for or collect. Strike doubling is a consequence of the planchet&#039;s seating in the chamber, that&#039;s all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
