    So I came across this today, I've seen alot and in not here to ask about the Kennedy stamp or whatever it may be, not sure of what process puts those on there. But asking about the Doubling on Obverse, in date ( the seven has me wondering) MVIMG_20190126_000547.jpg Screenshot_20190126-000937.png Screenshot_20190126-000849.png Screenshot_20190126-000828.png Screenshot_20190126-000828.png MVIMG_20190126_000649.jpg MVIMG_20190126_000636.jpg , Lincolns eye the lettering across top as well as major and smaller cracks throughout the reverse and some Doubling appearing on ONE CENT. ALL OFF THIS I GUESS COULD MVIMG_20190126_001635.jpg MVIMG_20190126_001651.jpg MVIMG_20190126_001609.jpg HAVE CAME FROM WHATEVER WHATEVER IS DONE TO PUT KENNEDY ON THE COIN.

    For sure! Put it on ebay and make sure you put " Rare" in the title, or else it won't sell. :hilarious:

    So is just machine Doubling? Or is something more?

    The process is called a Counterstamp done after it leaves the US Mint and made as a novelty.. Now you know! ;)

    Walter if the coin had even a minute numismatic value. It was lost when the
    Kennedy counterstamp was added to it.

    that counterstamp is hideous. Go to one of the sites that list the "markers". If the markers arent there, chances of having a true DD are less than getting stuck by lighting 5 times in one day. There are so many coins that look like DD to the average person that doesnt do this full time. The most sure fire way to research is to simply find the die markers. I have found one true DD in circulation and it "looked" just as they all do to me with clear signs of doubling. I verified it before even posting here by finding multiple site listings for the die markers. Die markers present = DD. Some will say Wexlers isnt great but to me it shows clear pictures and descriptions of die markers for alot of coins you run across.
