In addition to the DD, there is some MD apparent. If you look at your photo of the O in ONE you will note that the bottom of the O shows thinning...
You’re on a hot streak with older cents. Here’s a thread dedicated to Pocket Change finds here at CT -...
Looks like 1960LD. Fun find!
All of my W coins are from pocket finds. Nice catch!
Thinking I might have an insert laying around.
Hi Willy - 1956d1mm003 Die Variety Information - coppercoins.com Pictures are improving, but still hard to see. Fortunately, this particular...
Always fun to see other folks finds. There is a thread for posting Pocket Finds in the Coin Roll Hunting forum, but we try to keep that for...
Funny thing was I found a $20 Star Note not too long ago but gave it to my wife to give to a coworker (a fellow coin collector I would see...
Remember Sal...the thrill is in the hunt!! Not all hunts produce 'game', but if there's enjoyment along the way, it's a win for me. What it...

Thanks for that @Spark1951 ! I was shooting from the hip and couldn't remember if I had my thoughts correct. I almost didn't hit Post Reply. I...
Z - Sorry...skipped over that last bit. But it could be that the die face coined on an angle. And misaligned. That would explain the tapering...

Banks work with distributors like Brinks to sell and buy coinage. The banks are charged fees to return coins and perhaps to buy them....
Keep in mind the current mintages dwarf what was minted in the past. I think the mintage for LWCs was 72B over 50 years. In the past 2-3 decades,...
I found 3 - 1950D nickels, but two were AU/BU so those were liberated from a collection. I finally came across a circulated nickel after a few...
It could be a different clash. Only two listed by Mad Die Clashes and the other is atypical. This one is pretty close though: two clashes and...
