    First, welcome to CT. Can you give us a description of the particular error you are seeing?

    As others have said, your coin has mechanical doubling and isn't considered a doubled die error. Mechanical doubling is relatively common and adds no value to the coin. Wexler has a good explanation on his site under the tab "worthless doubling".

    Hope this helps

    BTW, 1971 is a common date for Ike dollars. Whoever told you it was rare either misunderstood your question or doesn't have much experience in numismatics

    That's MD or mechanical doubling. Very common.
