Not sure whether this article should have its stub designation changed after my edits or not. There is not a lot of expanding left to do on it that I can see. --Qwertypoiuy 23:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Classes of hub doubling

This section I have just briefly outlined, and it has plenty of room for expansion. 98.77.79.246 (talk) 01:26, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Other Sections that could be added

A section could deal with the anomaly known as wavy steps, which some attributers label as doubled dies while others label them as design extension (see www.traildies.com). There is a small, developing article on these anomalies on Wikipedia here: Wavy step. I would suggest a brief description of how they are believed to be created and a link to this page will be appropriate, especially once these pages develop into their full potential.

There are a few other doubled die hypothesized classes, many attaching a title of class 9 to them, but there is far from any consensus on this class, so if we deal with it here, it should be under a section for "additional theories." There are three I know of. 1. God Only Knows (a more appropriate title is in order, but that was what it was called. Probably should rename it as "Unknown" or something like that. But then, this seems more like a cop-out than a type of doubling.) 2. Shifted. Technically this one is a class 8 doubled die produced under special circumstances, so it rather should be a sub-category under that. 3. I can't remember exactly what this one was hypothesized to be, but it was something like an accidental clashing of the die and hub while inserting and removing them out of the hubbing press, if I remember rightly. But then, this could also be explained through the known classes. 98.77.79.246 (talk) 01:26, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
