<p>[QUOTE="BeeDoc, post: 913990, member: 24684"]I tried reading the sticky post about doubling, but could access only the last section, so I may be asking an ignorant question. The coin is a Nepal 1 Rupee dated 2035 (which translates to about 1978; New Year's in Nepal falls in April, so there is not an exact correspondence). There is interesting doubling on the reverse. The difference here is that it looks like a mistake was made in creating the die and at least a half-hearted effort was taken to erase the mistake (note the heavy file lines on parts of the reverse) before fixing it. The sword in the center appears to have been of the wrong design, being about the right length, but having a different, narrower guard. Some of the lettering also seems to have been too small and/or narrow. Is there such a thing as "reworked die doubling" or am I misinterpreting what I am seeing?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
