    Description

    Die deterioration (die wear, die fatigue) sometimes produces discernible doubling of affected design elements.  We call this die deterioration doubling (DDD).  Its appearance is highly variable.  It is often
    raised
    but can sometimes be
    incuse
    .  Incuse DDD is most often seen on copper-plated zinc cents, but does occasionally appear in other issues.
