<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cphine, post: 740108, member: 20940&quot;]In the first picture, I have the obverse of a 1991-P Kennedy Half dollar coin with obvious doubling on the nose, ear, and below the chin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It is definately an error, but in all my reading about the difference between machine doubling and an actual doubled die, I haven&#039;t really seen any good pictures.&nbsp; Given the odds, I&#039;m betting this is just machine doubling, but could someone let me know for sure?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was also curious, since both are rare, why is it that doubled dies are considered valuable while machine doubling is considered damage?&nbsp; Is it just relative rarity?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The second picture I thought was just a terribly damaged Kennedy Half.&nbsp; It looks extemely worn down.&nbsp; On second glance though, with the rims still intact as they are, how could it be normal ware?&nbsp; Wouldn&#039;t it have impaced the rims as well?&nbsp; Is there any other way for this to have been created?&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks.</p><p>~Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
