    That's where I was headed with it, but thought I'd get some other opinions.

    If you haven't read up on what is called worthless doubling.
    Here is a good start.

    There is a lot of good reading on Wexler's site.
    Including good photos of real doubled dies.

    @Danomite is correct. The "S" cents from 1968-1974 were also notorious for die chips inside the mint mark.
