Sorry. I don't see anything that makes me think this is a hub doubled die.

[mustbebob]

Welcome to the forum. I hope we are able to take care of your questions here.

[mustbebob]

This appears to be a scraped mintmark where the excess metal moved into the void of the mint mark and has since worn over. I see some damage at the base...

[mustbebob]

Damage. Someone took a sharp item and scribbled all over it.

[mustbebob]

First of all, a broadstrike is the result of the collar not deploying in the first place and the coin being stuck so that it is not contained by anything....

[mustbebob]

I don't see any indications of a clash. What I do see looks like a stain of some sort. Even a rotated misaligned die clash wouldn't leave any marks in...

[mustbebob]

By all means, save it for your collection, especially if you feel confident with your attribution. My point is that if it ever came to sending it out...

[mustbebob]

This coin is not a struck through but is damaged by a corrosive. Most likely an acid of some sort.

[mustbebob]

This is all the result of MD (Machine Doubling).

[mustbebob]

The initials have either worn away from circulation, or they never struck up because of a filled area of the die where the initials were located. Grease...

[mustbebob]

I guess it is possible, but when you can't see the doubling, and there is enough circulation wear to flatten out the devices, I don't see putting a lot...

That all looks like MD Ron.

[mustbebob]

I appreciate you taking extra pics but, I am still not seeing anything that looks like hub doubling.

[mustbebob]

Really difficult to pin it down without markers. It would have to be submitted so that the attributor has it in hand to scrutinize it more closely. These...

[mustbebob]

I do not know the date for that to happen. Our lead attributor will make that announcement....

[mustbebob]

Those photos are so tiny that they pixelate when I try to zoom in on them. Based on what I can see, there is no hub doubling on this coin.

[mustbebob]

Looks like we have some MD along with the notching. Based on what I am seeing, the best chance of being able to attribute it would be with the coppercoins.com...

[mustbebob]

The scrapes are the result of the ejection of the coin from the collar. It scraped against either the collar itself, or the retreating die resulting...

[mustbebob]

It is split plating which has resulted in corrosion of the zinc core.

[mustbebob]

Can you please include a photo of the entire date? There are many to chose from, but not a lot of them have that notching on the 4 of the date. Maybe...
