I'm not suggesting that it was tampered with outside the mint. I am also not saying it is an error. It is a product of a later-stage die...
Mechanical doubling can appear on more coins than one. That does not mean that it is a doubled die. If you want to submit it, be my guest...just...
I search rolls of cents for die varieties, and have found many in my searches. Some I keep for myself, and some I put up for sale. It's nothing to...
It doesn't help to show a picture that "looks like" what you have, because there can be coins that look like RPMs but are not. If you have a...
Looks like a coin that was struck by a die later in its life. Seems especially common on nickels. Completely normal from what I can see. Keep up...
A shelf in the mintmark area would indicate mechanical doubling. I consider correct orientation to be as if I were reading the mintmark like a...
Don't really see anything that would indicate an RPM. Looks like a hit to the top serif. It also helps if the photos are oriented correctly. ckeep...
I'd go F-15 on it. Nice pickup!
Sorry, looks more like mechanical doubling than a doubled die to me. Keep up the hunt!
Someone definitely had too much time on their hands. Damage, but still a cool find. Keep up the hunt!

I can say that it doesn't look like an off-center strike, because the whole coin is well-centered on the planchet. I don't need to see both sides...
The lincolncentresource.com main site does not have an extensive list like coppercoins.com does; you will not find as extensive a list of the...
That applies to along his back. The anomaly around the collar appears to be a die clash remnant. Keep up the hunt!
I think this is a normal cud, not a retained one.
I could see that CUD bringing $17-25 on ebay. It is a nice size. CUDs on dated cents usually command a little more of a premium.
I'm not seeing any indication of an off-center strike. The "error", or for a better term, the anomaly is a product of the mint "retouching the...
Definitely a nice CUD. Great find. Keep up the hunt!
Does appear to be notching, so there it is a good possibility it is a DDO. Keep up the hunt!
Well, I was going to represent California, but after the recent events that have transpired, I think I'll pass...:rolleyes:
