New Jersey, 1999, doubling on the reverse?

I've looked at pictures and pictures of Doubling. Still have a hard time telling the difference. Would this be a Doubled Die?

Thats die deterioration doubling, see how it wraps around the devices. This kind of doubling is common on Cupro Nickel coinage.

 

Not a Doubled Die variety. Just worthless doubling unfortunately.

 

Well. In good humor, I see this as a condition called "microscopititus". Otherwise called "microscope pareidolia".

 

I guess if you are using a scope then yes. But this kind of doubling is easily seen and noticed.

 

With a 10x loupe for me. My eyes are bad and bleeding.

 

I can still see fat details and rims. I do only use cash, if that has a benefit.

 

Not a Doubled Die. Just doubling from a worn die or die deteriorating doubling.

 

I think you (and everyone) needs to keep in mind when looking for doubled dies in pocket change that the mint started using single-press hubbing in 1986 and certainly by 1999 all dies were made that way. The chattering of the press that occurred after that is generally very minor and at the center of coins, like Washington's earlobe. I don't consider it doubling in the traditional sense at all, but Wexler still lists them as such. https://doubleddie.com/179401.html

 

Thanks for that info
