Bear with me...:)

I meant the T's on reverse

Maybe the N as well. I may have gotten it's Obverse and reverse backwards! Ha!

 

Thanks for specifying. What I see is most likely the lighting creating the appearance of doubling. It is possible there is a very small amount of machine doubling (which is a normal, common occurrence), but it really just looks to be the light.

 

You are probably seeing DDD, worn die doubling. A real Doubled Die, the kind you want the would not a letter here or then. It would be in the general area. Like the entire date or LIBERTY, not just a few letters in LIBERTY.

 

Ok. Thank you. I think I need to get stronger glasses! Ha!

 

Gotcha. I really need new glasses! It's getting harder for me to see! Ha!

 

There are numerous types of doubling and all but one are worth very little. Most people never get it. You're doing fine. One thing though, don't look at coins with a pair of sunglasses. Hahaha.

 

The funny thing is I was wearing my glasses! Ha!! My seeing ones!

 

LOL You must be tired. I am. Have a good night.

 

Ha! I think most everyone who starts looking for doubled dies experiences this at least a couple times.

 

Just saw this. Hope you had a good night!

 

I think I've experienced it more than a few! Ha!

 

I read some more about them and it says it can be just in one or two places...not that I don't believe you, it's just confusing

 

I've since taken several more pics in different lighting. Still looks the same...

 

There is nothing "tough love" about any of this - it's all just condescension, ridicule, impatience and no help whatsoever. No one on this forum is under any obligation to respond to anything that you, or anybody else, posts.

You didn't even give her the benefit of the doubt that perhaps there's something else that may contribute to her not responding to your post. Now you know.

If you don't like something, you have the option of simply ignoring it. If you think someone is ignoring you, you have the option of ignoring them back. If you don't want to help her, then simply stop reading her posts and leave her alone.

 

Yes but now I'm ready for another one. Lol

 

Thank you very much for saying this. I appreciate it!

 

Ha! Me too!

 

Your question about doubling on the Lincoln is similar to one I had about an 1882 Shield Nickel that I for many years thought was a doubled die. The good folks here on CT educated me about machine doubling, and keep in mind I have been collecting since I was in second grade back in 1981. None of us know all there is to know and most of us are reminded from time to time how little we know.

 

Thank you. It makes me feel better to know I'm not alone! I appreciate you taking the time to respond.
