[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 7602986, member: 21705"]I couldn't have done it if I was trying. It happens to be my birth-year set and I picked it up because there were no distracting marks or toning on the silver or cent and a nice soft overall tone to the nickel. Because my eyes aren't aging well, I use a digital microscope and 52" screen to "see" my coins these days. This effect is actually all I can get photographing the nickel through the cellophane. To be honest, I'm still not sure it is definitely photographic doubling, but it is far more likely than a new 1958 Proof DDR. So the question wasn't really rhetorical, but a search for knowledge in an area where my knowledge base is weak. This is the quarter and with a similar effect and it even looks like the AR are connected at the base. I'm just hesitant to unseal a 63 year old proof set which would be necessary to eliminate the question.[/QUOTE]
