<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1113085, member: 29239"]You sure may be right . I didn't know that Coneca had already identified a 1976 doubled die. My coin appears to have a bit more stronger doubling than your photo shows but my coin may be a early die state. on the coin I have the doubling shows the best on the 9s and 6s in the dates. the number 6s are split nicely at the top of the 6 and then split again at the top of the curl in the 6. I don't see how a master hub could get doubled from being engraved but I suppose anything can happen. if this was the master hub then every 1976 dollar will have this same doubling because the master hub is the one that is used to make the design on all the working dies.. maybe the folks at Coneca just thinks the master die was doubled , I only have this one 76 dollar coin so I don't have anything to compare it to. If every 76 dollar has this doubling then why should we call them anything other than a 76 dollar ? Thanks for the information.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
