    Haven't had much luck in determining the type of doubling this coin has. I'm new here and not a collector,
    but would like to know the type of doubling and what the value might be, as I am going to sell it on eBay.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Dennis lib.jpg IMG_7605.jpg IMG_7596.jpg IMG_7607.jpg 1998.jpg

    This is not a doubled die, it's simply machine doubling. Very common and does not carry a premium in most cases. Here's a link where you can read about it:

    Well, it was a microscope thing my mom's bf gave me when I was like 11 or 12...it has a light bulb and all, at first I thought it was just the light bulb, so I got two new ones...the first bulb lasted like 3 hours and the second bulb lasted 1 hour...I checked that they were the correct bulbs, and they were...new batteries...still no light :(
