<p>[QUOTE=&quot;usmc60, post: 2607163, member: 76739&quot;]You&#039;re absolutely right I did not read that article. The one I was reading was on the quarters. Since a lot of them have been showing up in circulation. I&#039;m not sure if it was in coin world or on the Internet, I was looking up I believe it was the arches DDR. And came across the article. It did not have any other information on any other denominations since it was not relevant to the quarter doubling. Even my recent update on my arches thread, even that one has a die flaw in the arches lettering. Like I said previously, M.D. happens and it&#039;s quite noticeable. I personally would not be bold enough to call them DDRs. To me it looks like a damage die in the lettering.I&#039;m sure this will be brought up in numismatic this coming year.And one thing the article mentioned it believes most people do not take into consideration that these letters are not raised letters on the surface there&nbsp; impression letters. And that has to be taken into consideration.The only reason I&#039;d even consider taking what the article said with any validity. Is because I&#039;m finding ones with localized defect. And like you said in your post doubling usually starts from the middle&nbsp; out. The question I asked myself when looking at these coins and see in a localized defect. How that defect occurred. Seems that&#039;s another word members like using a lot to explain a lot of occurrences. I do not believe it is an MD and have to go with a damage die.DD .<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie24" alt=":blackalien:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
