Can anyone tell me the particulars on the reverse doubling? Thanks in advance.

JC - here is a previous thread on the 1946 DDR. The last one that I saw was owned by board member FIVECENTS - don't know if he still has it though.

Thanks Frank. I picked up a '46 in VF, and the feathers are doubled heavily. Can't really tell if it's just machine doubling or what. I'll have to dig it out and take a better look tomorrow.

TWODOGS,
The doubling is easy to see in "E PLURIBUS UNUM", the eagles ankle,and the wing feather tips (on the right side of coin). I made a PCGS ms64 a couple of months ago.

Frank,
Yep, I still own the coin.

Paul - could you post a pic of it - it's as strong as any DDR I've ever seen!

Here`s another link ( pop-up alert ) that also describes it too.

My camera doesn't get close enough on the macro shots, unfortunately. I take back the VF, more like an F-12. Thought it was neat for $2.00.
