Yes, small date Denver minted coins are not worth much of a premium over the large dates. I think the Grey Sheet puts them at around $4-$5 per roll.
This coin was more than like the victim of a coin rolling machine. That's one of the prime spots that the rolling finger hits and moves metal....
The doubled die aspects of that coin are quite obvious from that picture. There is no doubt about it all. It does not look like MD at all. I...
Actually I was going to see how you'd play along with this, but I'll save everyone the trouble. Why did you steal an image from Coneca's website?...
That's a rare find Tommy. Can you post more pics?
I think what you are seeing is a combination of that, die deterioration and general circulation.
I'm seeing a lot of machine doubling, but nothing other than that.
It's the reeded edges AND the full design rim that makes me think it's not a weak strike. Remember that the design rim comes from the strike and...
Given the presence of normal reeding and the normal design rim, I would lean towards grease filled dies on this one rather than a weak strike.
The 2009 Formative Years cents are not "die wear doubling." These are doubled dies. The Shield Cent posted is MD.
Rick, The 1984 DDO001 and 2006 DDO004 are two well known examples of doubled ears, but they are not the only ones. 1988 and 1997 are just a...
As far as the "doubled rim" goes, that's from a slightly misaligned die. Very common.
Doesn't make sense to me, but I never understood why PCGS was so tough on red coins that aren't perfectly "shiny", yet they'd give the same rb or...
Looks like a nice misaligned die.
Wow. Surely that thing didn't turn that fast.
Looks like a details to me.
Hard to tell if it's a random die gouge, or a roping die break. Often before a big die chip breaks off of a die adjacent to a device, we'll see...
So a coin dealer is the one telling you that these coins you are finding are the real deal?
That Lincoln Cent has been plated.
Looks like environmental damage. That's exactly the look of a clad coin that has spent some time in the ground.
