    1884? uncerculated? You joking or trolling? Why so many 1984's? Birthyear? My net lags so I could see accidental multi posting, but somethings up here.

    It is what is called" worthless doubling" not a Doubled Die.

    A couple things to help

    1. read the link that @Pickin and Grinin posted. Look at the pictures, especially mechanical doubling and die deterioration. Coins with these types of defects DO NOT have any additional value. The vast majority of what new collectors think are doubled dies fall into these 2 categories. Don't worry if it doesn't all sink in. You're new. But it will give you a start at learning what to look for.

    2. Finding a true doubled die (even the microscopic ones) is rare. it's unlikely that you have one on the group of coins you posted, but if you think 1 or 2 may have something or you're not sure what you're seeing, post a cropped picture of both the front and back. Don't take the photo from an angle. And if it's blurry, it's useless.

    3. You'll get some short and sarcastic responses. Have a thick skin. If you get 2 or 3 responses saying it's not worth anything, it's not worth anything. If a member gives you the wrong answer, it will be corrected by others (sort of like piranha going after a wounded fish).

    Hope this helps

    I recently had a 1984P returned to me from John Wexler as machine doubling. Even after 50 years in this I can make mistakes. But I put this under the loupe first and then under my 200X microscope and it did not look like anything other than nicely rounded hub doubling at "Liberty". I thought I had a discovery piece but, Oh well.
