<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jay4202472000, post: 2832905, member: 42573&quot;]No, in the <b>ONE</b> link I provided the incuse letters are WAY wider than normal.&nbsp; As a matter of fact there is a whole other impression from die bounce.&nbsp; If it was skinny and distorted it would be a doubled die. The other link was concerning the 1972 master die doubling.</p><p><br /></p><p>The incuse MD is wider because to create incuse letters on a coin, those same letters on the die are raised.&nbsp; So when the loose die moves laterally it smears the letters and makes them look much wider/thicker than a normal strike.&nbsp; Take one of those refrigerator magnet letters (this is the die) and press it into play dough (play dough is the coin).&nbsp; Then move it horizontally.&nbsp; That is incuse MD.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, there is no triple strike on that Ozark quarter.&nbsp; Just simple die movement during the strike (Machine Damage/Machine Doubling/MD whatever you want to call it.)&nbsp; Oh, and that gash beside the A is just that, a gash.&nbsp; There is also a gash running through the RK. Just take some time and look closely at it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
