    Here I have my 1992 D penny (double die). Unfortunately it's not the close am. Please give me some feedback on this. Is it really considered double died and how much could it be worth? Thank you very much

    OP, your mint-mark placement matches perfect too ...​

    The correct terminology is Doubled Die not Double
    Quote - "Note that the proper terminology for this occurrence includes the letter 'd' at the end of the first word, hence "doubled die". The term "double die" without the first word ending in 'd' is not proper numismatic terminology." closed quote

    If you are refering to the Doubling on your date.. this is considered Die Deterioration Doubling. Not an error and no premium
    Here is a close up picture of your 1992

    If you look at E PLURIBUS UNUM, you could see the same words in the background. On top of states, you could see some pieces of the letter on top of it and same thing for the ted part in united. Also, on top of the Lincoln memorial, it has this little outline around it. Same for in the back of Lincoln's head. Thank you guys for checking my penny out. Thanks for the advice and help, I really appreciate it

    Yes I see that also. Again I say, that is not true doubling caused by a Doubled Die. It is a common plating issue founds on many Copper Plated Zinc Cents. Also caused by Die Deterioration.

    I just found this today. Im new at collecting coins and new to the site. It is not a close am but it sure is a nice double die. What would something like this be worth. Any comments are welcome. Also the double die photo has not been edited the doubling is vissable with the naked eye.

    What you have is DDD - Die Deterioration Doubling
    Not a Doubled Die variety
    Worth 1Cent

    You would think if he read the previous posts he would have gotten "doubled" die correct.

    I just found a near replica of this penny today so I thought I'd add my thoughts on this. It did catch my eye especially on the 1992 and D which I thought was doubled, but it's not consistent with actual doubled dies. It very much resembles deterioration as the reverse has zinc exposed above 'states' and top and right of the memorial. 'CE' in cent is also quite shallow, which truly shows it's a deteriorated die, especially when it's both obverse and reverse. Mine lacks the blisters though.

    Will definitely keep it... with my poor man's doubles.
