Description
Magnificent 1916 Doubled Die Obverse Nickel, MS64
1916 5C Doubled Die Obverse MS64 PCGS. FS-101, FS-106. While certain older references describe this legendary Buffalo nickel variety as a "doubled date" variant, the source of the doubling is not from repunching, as likely would have been the case were this a 19th century piece, but is the result of hub doubling. The nature of the doubling is Class V, or Pivoted Hub Doubling, in John Wexler's taxonomy. To quote The Authoritative Reference on Buffalo Nickels, written by Wexler, Ron Pope, and Kevin Flynn, "Pivot hub doubling occurs when a die is pivoted about a point near the rim during rehubbing. Because the point of the pivot is near the rim, the spread of doubling will be the strongest at the point directly opposite the pivot point and will decrease as you move away from that point."
