<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Daggarjon, post: 224876, member: 4230&quot;]a split serrif is where the corner of the numbers are seperated. if you can draw a line between the 2 bottom most points on the serrif of the #1 of the suspected D.D. for example, and the coin metal flows with it, then its MD. If the imaginary line between the 2 bottom most points of the serrif are not connected by metal flow, then it might be a true D.D.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; |....|</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; /......\</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; |_____|</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; ..\______|</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; |.....|</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; |.....|</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; /......\</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; |_____|</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ... |_____|</p><p><br /></p><p>in my very crude examples, look at the bottom left of the example &#039;coins&#039;. the top is Mechanical doubling, because there is no split in the serrifs. the bottom example is a true DD because there is a split.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please excuse my very poor crude examples, but i do hope it helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
