    It's not machine doubling. If it's real it could be a few hundred. There are many varieties of this date that are doubled. You need to clerk this out further. Take it to your LCS if there's one near you. If they make you an offer I personally wouldn't sell it.

    Looks like the 'Real Deal' to me. Would you share how you came by it?

    Compare to this known DD. Be honesty with yourself when you do this. Don't get excited. The let down is hard to deal with.

    Is there a local coin shop near you?
    Get an idea if it's legit first.
    You can send any coin for grading. For doubled die varieties you would send it to get Attributed. That's an extra fee.
