Good Morning! I have a few coins that I noticed and would like to see if I am right on my predictions. The first is the observe side of a 2000 Lincoln cent and think it's lamination. From jallengomez thread: http://www.cointalk.com/t93561/ this looks like the beginning stages. In the below pictures it starts with the letter "I" in AMERICA and goes into Lincoln's Memorial. In this next picture, I blew up the word LIBERTY from a 1978 Lincoln cent because I could tell that it is doubled. I tried variations of sizes hoping you can see what I see. (Liberty is the only word that has this effect) Lastly this picture is from a 1979 SBA "P" where the word ONE DOLLAR is doubled. Now the word dollar is hard to notice but the word one should be seen very easier. (these 2 words are the only doubling on this coin.) How did I do? Am I off/on? Getting there? Thank you for your help -Shrek P.S. It's nice to have a day off from work...much needed rest :goof: :whistle:
1) That's the reverse side of the coin, not the obverse. I see a die crack, but no lamination. 2) I'm seeing triple :goofer:. Serioulsy, I do see machine doubling. 3) Machine doubling.
thanks for the reply nss and clarification. Should I hold onto the die cracks or are they not worth it?
