Class 3 - Design Hub Doubling

Class 3 (design hub doubling). This die was hubbed from two different design hubs. CopperCoins lists it under 1970 Proof — Small Date — the design variety named first when collectors describe the coin (for example, “small over large” → Small Date). See the nine classes article for how Class 3 differs from a normal doubled die.

Die Notes

Large Date over Small Date Proof: A fantastic and unique spread shows as a large date hubbing over a small date hubbing. Extra thickness in varying degrees shows all over the obverse. Old CPG# 030
