<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 7816719, member: 15199&quot;]Well, not in everyone&#039;s mind.</p><p><br /></p><p>A true genuine Doubled die should not exist after 1995 when the mint went from the &quot;double squeeze&quot; die production to the computer (CNC) direct manufacture of a complete die. This die is only used with a single pressing of the planchet, so there should be NO double images. But a huge coin market incentive would be lost to coin dealers and authenicators,&nbsp; AND since the cnc bit often slipped or vibrated, it would make a bad image . Now the coin &quot;gurus&quot; could have said, normal- no doubled die, but instead any slippage on the die could be come a &quot;Doubled Die&quot; in their listing&nbsp; and the coins presented as similar to the Double Squeeze of the traditional 1955, 1969, 1972, etc., and offered as rare and worth more $.</p><p><br /></p><p>The topline grading services like PCGS, ICG, ANACS, NCG will only consider certain pre-double squeeze coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS </p><p>&quot; Fivaz-Stanton Varieties from the Cherrypickers Guide, Fourth Edition Vol. II and Fifth Edition Vol. I (<a href="https://www.pcgs.com/cherrypickerexclusions" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.pcgs.com/cherrypickerexclusions" rel="nofollow">see list for exclusions</a>)&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>So I had to answer your questions truthfully, sorry, IMO&nbsp; &nbsp; Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
