Repunch mint mark? or Zinc Rot? or maybe even both? ... there are no other places on the coin showing the same signs of zinc rot, if that's what...
And another question occurs to me. Since a tiny bounce of the die strike would cause this machine doubling and the second strike is not exactly...
Yes I do. Although I would think that for each double die variety found there would be thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of pennies out...

I'm looking for simple was to try and grade a coin. This "simple" method must be simple enough to be able to look at a thousands of coins and not...
