    Error MDD | Multiple Machine Doubling?

    I thought at first it was just PMD but there are too many consistencies from letter to letter and some up under the crossbar of each "T" in the same place. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Jon.

        Not sure how or why but it's different from any I've seen.

          Looks like the plating shifted to make the details more extreme.
          Even a fool can look wise if he keeps his mouth closed.

            Good call... I did not notice that at first but it does look like it... Adds to the cool looking factor!!!

              You are so right! I still have not gotten myself in the right mindset when looking at the plated Lincolns. I forget all the other possible anomalies that occur with it. There are also raised areas above the first T and the second S that may be plating bubbles. Thank you for your help!!

                That is split plating... I think the split plating that looks like little spaghetti strands are cool looking... The plating split but the MD factor pushed the metal into a strand form!!!
