hi guys, i have a few 82s , just going tru them i found this coin. let me no what you guys think. thank you
Some advice, if you think your images are not of sufficient quality, please use the fact that you have the coin in hand. Check it against the relevant listings for the date and MM and if you still need other opinions then ask and copy the link to what source you have viewed and paste it in your thread. When you upload images to your post PLEASE use the Full Image option for each photo. Bookmark this site for future reference http://varietyvista.com/01b LC Doubled Dies Vol 2/DDO listing.htm
thanks for the advice i do try to look it up but i have a hard time making sure. and i am not very computer learned so im sorry . but if you guys find it to hard to reply after reading a post, then just be happy with reading it, no one is Forcing your opinion@ ALL
We like to give advice when asked, but sometimes it is difficult to give an educated opinion when faced with generally poor quality thumbnails instead of full size images. Also it goes a long way when a member can show that they have tried to research the issue themselves before posting, even if they come to the wrong conclusion. The whole purpose of this forum is to share information and knowledge between us, and that includes people who have been collecting 60+ years right down the line to a beginner. Keep researching, keep posting and most of all keep learning.
Hello @Rafique - What you are seeing in the TY is some die deterioration and machine damage. Here are some photos for reference (sorry for the glare, tougher to photograph when in a flip).
It is a 82 large date. Looks to be copper but weight would be definitive. Need to check Wexler for the date to see if there are any known DDOs from Philadelphia mint. Here is my 82 LD Copper LMC with a slight MAD. Not DDO but is an EDS. Oh it's a woody as well.
I agree with Kevin. I have to add, that's some very attractive wood-graining on that cent, Razz. These early 1980s are prone to that for some reason. We've quite a few, too. I don't know why, exactly.
