Hello all! Ok Im back with another question about a suspicious looking 'B' in liberty on this penny. Also what's up with that L way over on the rim? Lol AND The top right side corners of the monument of this nickel... Am I seeing doubled? (Heeheehee)
On the 5¢, I did a little error searching, but not sure what type of doubling on the monument would be called or classified as so I decided to ask for help. Is this a thing? Or what
It would help if you gave the dates on all coins to see if there are any known documented Doubled Die varieties. At the moment all I see is Circulation wear.
Oh and here is something good I want to at least share with you.. I caught this Monarch Butterfly with my Metal Detector Scoop at the beach.. It was unharmed and released!
Pay attention to (approx.) before and after 1973 cents to the location of the "L" You'll see pre that the L is all the way to the left. Post, they push it in more. The more rim wear, the closer the L looks to the edge.
Hi, The L on the cent squashed on the rim is common for that year. The doubling on the nickel is Machine Doubling. Not a doubled die. It does not increase the value of the coin.
Hi! Brittany, I want to show you one of my coin, and can you tell me if its a DD. I just want you to see the differences between MD and DD.
I recommend people who are searching for DD, go out and buy a real DD coin. So they have one *in hand* for comparison. here's a good article ==> http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/mechanicalDoubling.html FYI, look at the "blob" type outline around the bottom of the T on Brian's nickel.
Sorry, its not a DD, its MD. If it were a doubled die, the devices would be enlarged. But mostly reduction of the devices appears. The reduction is flat, step like down, not even as a doubled die most of the time is, all the same color (flattened) not showing contour of the devices showing a gradual change of dark to light.
