We’re not clairvoyant.

 

I thought you were!!!

 

It’s fairly nice looking for a zinc cent that’s 34 years old. Any doubling you see is not a doubled die but it is the result of a tired, worn out die.

 

I see die deterioration doubling on the date/MM. Also, I see "split plate doubling on the reverse.

 

It’s @Collecting Nut, he’s the one.

 

@SensibleSal66. That’s two clairvoyants in one thread. What is this, an epidemic?

 

No, it’s horse sense my friend.

 

Yeah, I hear voices. What of it?

 

Split plate doubling is new to me, I assume no extra value to it.

 

No, sorry. No added value. Split Plating Doubling (error-ref.com)

 

Thank you, I checked the link you sent and learned a little more. I have studied the different types of doubling but still have trouble knowing the difference. I will keep working on it. With everyone's help I may get it someday.

 

What do you clairvoyants think? Am I ever going to get it?

 

Understanding is one thing and can be accomplished by training, studying and making mistakes. Finding a true doubled die in circulation is more difficult.
