<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jay4202472000, post: 1924034, member: 42573&quot;]This happened during the creation of the die.&nbsp; No planchet, collar, ect. had anything to do with this coin.&nbsp; If you truly believe what you are saying, the famous 1955 doubled die is nothing special either.&nbsp; It is a Class 1 doubled die (rotated hub doubling).&nbsp; The die was hubbed once and then, before the next hubbing, the hub rotated.&nbsp; Something was loose.&nbsp; The illustration above is showing a die &amp; hub, not a die and planchet.&nbsp; That is the difference.&nbsp; These doubled dies were created during the die hubbing process, not the striking process.&nbsp; Loose parts during the striking process is what causes MD.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t like it say, &quot;That coin is ugly, That&#039;s a sucky looking hunk of junk, or I hate that coin.&quot;&nbsp; Just don&#039;t say it shouldn&#039;t be labeled a doubled die.&nbsp; If it isn&#039;t, there is no such thing as a doubled die.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
