Great find Tommy. It appears to be real. But I am not sure if I detect a cleaning on it, the details look a little mushy and that could be...
Looking at that comparison and comparing it to your coin, I would lead towards MD. To me, it looks "cut in", rather than a fully raised, notched...
(Technically varieties, but I'll let it slide. ;) )That's cool. Was it given a die reference number on CONECA?
To be honest I do not have a full assessment, which is why I inquired about Mike Diamond's description. When I first saw it I did not immediately...
It could be a wide variety of things, including PMD (possibly solder) or a die chip/break. It is hard to determine what it is just with a...
Hmmm...did you post it somewhere else and he responded? I would really like to hear his assessment on what part of the coin is being doubled. Thanks!
No offense, but confirmed as what, and by whom? This was still before single-squeeze hubbing, so I would imagine that the doubling would show on...
First post looks like PMD on the word "IN", with a lamination error across lincoln. Second post looks like a large die crack at the base of the...

ebay completed listings are the most accurate way for seeing what the coin has gone for recently. Coppercoins.com is useful as a database, but as...

In my opinion, no. The grading would probably cost as much as it is worth, so if you want to make a profit on it I would sell it raw.
I see it. It is 1DO-001, which is tougher to identify in circulated condition. There is some verdigris or something around the letters though,...
Congrats cremebrule!
I make no sense? What is posting 2 of the same image supposed to prove for this case?
Does not look like a match. Doesn't matter what setup you used, Rick...the doubled die should be easy enough to spot with a wide variety of...
What's the date of the coin? Can you get a picture that's a little zoomed out?
For some coins, you have to think "how could this have happened during the minting process"? For this particular coin, I can't imagine it leaving...
Not all coins struck by a particular die that has clashed at one point will have the clash. Clashes can occur at any die state...early, mid, and...
You're totally right, Tim, you are the enlightened one and the rest of us are but just mindless sheep grazing in the pasture. While you have the...
