A modified hub doubled die question

If there were running lines around the top of the coin, and a remaining removed image remains on top of a second hubbing replacement COULD we see that line running over the whole letter on the coin face, while it is doubled, being such heavy removal abrasion between hubbings? (On mid modern copper.)
We'll see...WHAT? What brought your attention...?

ummm…. what?
You may need to modify your question, because your terminology is unfamiliar.
It would also be helpful if you posted some example photos that show what you describe.
A modification between two hubbings is a modified hub doubled die.
Abrasion is common for removal.
If an image featuring heavy abraision being doubled shows a line running over the image, not in the field, can the line be from abrasion from the first image removed between hubbings. There's only one way to say it.

Thank you for expanding the question.
So this is the "Class VII" doubled die,
where the theory is that the hub was modified between 2 pressings into the die.
But apparently all of the Class VIIs have been moved into other classes,
because it's difficult to prove the hub was modified.
Instead, 2 different hubs could have been used, or rotation, etc.
