<p>[QUOTE="Dtort, post: 4964041, member: 113973"]I've seen lots of cases where people mistake machine doubling for doubled-die coins. And I'm wondering now if I have an example of this. I just got a 1963 proof Roosevelt dime where a previous owner marked the flip as FS-803. But after looking at the coin with a macro lens and using the "Wexler's Coins and Die Variety" website as a reference, I'm pretty sure it ISN'T a FS-803. But it doesn't match anything else in the Wexler site either, as far as I can tell. </p><p>But it has this interesting doubling on the "ONE" in "One Dime", and if you zoom in, it sure looks like tripling on the left side of the "P" in "Pluribus". </p><p>Is "mechanical tripling" a thing? </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1193169[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
