Is there a doubled ear on this 2012?

I know there hasn't been a reported doubled ear on a 2012 penny yet...I didn't know if this was something I might need to send in to get checked out.

 

Well i must say the pic is a bit blurry so its a bit hard to tell try scanning at high dpi if you can.

 

Maybe this one is better. I scanned it at 4600. My camera messed up and I have to buy another one....until then all I have is the scanner on my Kodak printer/scanner.

 

Think this is better pic of entire coin.

 

Well I can definitely see something there that seems to extend the thickness of the ear lobe. The best you can hope for is that its a new variety. Worst is that we are just seeing doubled . I would maybe try attributing it to CONECA.

 

Ok...never done that before...truly a newbie....how would I do that?
I also rescanned at highest dpi available.

For yours i would choose for the appropiate contributor as of above.

 

Thanks for the information and contact StandingPride95. I found some information on CONECA and went ahead and joined/paid for a membership. I'll be sure to mention you sent me his way. Thanks so much for taking time to help me! :hail:

 

No problem I hope everything goes well and you have a new variety. hopefully.
