<p>[QUOTE="mcharvet, post: 290225, member: 10738"]thanks for the responses! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I know what the regular DD looks like - but thanks for the photo ;-) I said it did not resemble it at all. Yes I agree a big IF its a double strike not die. Someone commented that the wheat stalks are not double striked but they are as well. the entire reverse is symmetrical with the way it was struck. Also - the entire obverse would not be doubles if it were double struck - the way it was done you can tell that the entire coin was not hit. Also - lincoln IS double struck you jsut cant tell by the photos. His entire chin, nose etc., are lightly double struck and then when it gets to the top - it was not long hitting the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>What interested me though was the comment that it was done with a different metal. Id like to know more about that[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
