And whats wrong with this "A"? Sorry, im new and would rather learn from experienced collectors rather than youtube.

 

No

 

Your A took a hit and the metal was moved. Damaged.

 

Ok. Thanks.

 

Is there a certain lighting to check pennies under? Or angle?

 

Take a look at my avatar. That is what a doubled die looks like. Though that is one of the stronger Lincoln doubled dies.

 

I seeee

 

Out of the other 7 varieties
the 1982 small date Philly zinc and
the 1982 small date Philly copper have some value in high grades.

 

Really? I have one of each. So i guess thats a plus.

 

He said "some value in high grades". You don't have high grade coins I suspect.

 

Yes, in mint state these are perhaps .80 cents and .50 cents.
But mint state is really, really brand new nice.
I still need the 1982 SD Philly zinc.

 

shinny, even.

 

That is certainly a big plus, but please understand that you're going to have to put in the effort to educate yourself.

Please consider spending at least a few hours on http://doubleddie.com/
reading up on how dies are made, the minting process, worthless doubling, what constitutes a doubled die, etc, etc, and then come to the board with what remaining questions you may have.

Welcome to the forum, Sean.

 

I should have those too, but certainly no high grades but good to know

 

Thank you for the information. I will study the link.

 

Sooooo, who has ever seen a period or incomplete ecclamation point at the end of AMERICA?

 

What’s the date
