Doubled ear or MD?

I can't decide on this one.

Not my area but those that know will need a full photo, preferably obverse and reverse and the date and mintmark.

 

No expert here but I think the chin should show doubling also.

 

The chin is machine doubling. I'm wondering about the ear lobe.

 

That looks like MD to me.

Ok thanks

 

If you find a doubled ear you'd know it immediately Sheila , it's quite pronounced .

 

Ok thanks

 

Sheila what date was that cent of yours .

 

1992

 

It is the same penny with machine doubling of the 1992 that I posted earlier. This is also a picture of the Y on the liberty on the same 1992 Penny.

 

I'm thinking MD but we might as well get an expert to look at it as that Y looks funky . @Jim M

 

Whatever it is you see on the Y in liberty seems very minor.

 

Yeah, not a big deal. I'm just trying to learn. It's a lot to learn, but very interesting.

 

Sheila, its machine doubling.



I believe Jason did this several years ago and I have yet to see it explained better. Look for notch's, separation lines or extra thickness. Are you a member of CONECA? I like your enthusiasm. You seem to have a genuine interest in the hobby.

 

Yes, I do have a major interest. I am not a member. I know it is pretty cheap, but we just don't have the extra money. I am trying to learn all I can online though. I have seen many of the Machine doubling, but there is so many different types. sometimes I cannot tell the difference.

 

Don't feel bad , either can I or most of the people here , That's why I asked Jim to take a look . He knows his errors and if he doesn't or has doubts on a particular error he'll tell you .

 

To me the drawing is off. It shows MD as curved or rounded but it actually drops off like a step, more like the hub doubling picture minus the notch. Maybe MD has some curvature in close magnification but I think the drawing has too much emphasis here
