There could be any number of reasons for this but if I had to guess based on seeing more and more of these more “classic looking” obverse doubled dies since about 2010, I’d say that some part of the tooling in the hubbing process for cents has seen some wear resulting in a sloppy fit. This could allow for a shift to occur further along into the process of hubbing a die with the shift occurring at near the finishing point of the dies’ production.”</p><p><br /></p><p>- reasons unknown is what gets to me and we are still in the new era of the die designs for shields the lower relief and composition I’m sure on the future we’ll have much more on this subject a better understanding of doubled dies or “doubled dies” on shield cents[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
