Mechanical doubling. http://www.cointalk.com/threads/lets-talk-doubling.224087/
Well, for companies such as PCGS and NGC, you need a membership to submit coins. For ANACS you don't. All information can be found on their...
Just a product of die wear I think.
And number 2. :) [ATTACH]
Large cent pickup number 1... [ATTACH]
I think they're pretty cool. If I had a couple thousand to spend, I'd possibly pick one up.
I posted it in another thread, but I had a seller rattle off a list of excuses after they failed to ship an item 3 weeks after I purchased it. "I...
This doesn't look like a traditional doubled die for me...I see what MIGHT be notches, but I think they could possibly be attributed to light...

This one is gonna go to PCGS. :) I'll keep you guys updated.
Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but does this coin show any signs of recoloring? In-hand I'm not really picking up on old cleaning marks, but I...
maybe a counterfeit? Or some type of token? Pics would help.
Not bad, I picked it up for $150 on ebay. I think it is the most I have spent on a single coin, now. I really like the toning and color on it....
Separate names with a comma.
