    He didn't ask about magnitude, just is it or is it not.

    darn it if something is too small to see with a microscope why should someone worry what it is ? when things get's this small no one can say for sure what it is. IMO those microscopes are no good for error coin searching just like I told you before.

    If you are talking about that line from top to bottom to the right of the column, look to the right of Lincoln a few bars away. There will be another one to the left of a column, (if the coin is not damaged and the strike was good).
    They are normal parts of the design.

    If that is not what you are referencing, I don't see anything else to indicate a doubled die.

    This is infact a DD!!! I been on a road trip to learn more about coins in general and about error cents. Can't sit around
    A computer screen and rely on the word of people who say they know what they talking about and then turn around and post
    A coin asking what they have and then try to tell me what I have that makes no cents!!!
    I been in 5 states so far and can say I'm grateful to have met people who are true
    Die hard collectors and error experts take a look at what I
    And offer me the knowledge to move forward. On big piece
    Of advice that was given to me is to double check any cent You post
    On a forum. This is why I haven't been posting. And I made
    INCREDIBLE finds along the way to say the least. Everything is being recorded and will probably be edited and
    Put on YouTube as a documentary on my travels to learn about error coins.

    Uh, if you don't mind me asking, who did you talk to that told you it was a doubled die? There are a few members in this thread that have been collecting for decades and are experts in the variety/error fields...I concur with foundinrolls. This coin is NOT a doubled die.

    Class IX doubled dies (which is what you are indicating you have) are only known to have been found on more modern cents (1990-2008).

    What I see is PMD and possible die damage, but nothing that would indicate a doubled die IMO.

    I know it can be frustrating looking through so many coins and having trouble finding varieties, but it takes a lot of patience, research, and knowledge of the minting and hubbing process to pick them out easier.

    The areas with the arrows pointing to them still show minor die anomalies like pits and gouges. Still no doubled die.

    I second that. There are SOME of us that are serious about this and want to further our knowledge in this hobby. As you can see, people like you are greatly needed around here.
