    Can someone post pictures of a 1917 Double Die Cent? Maybe a graded one? I found a 1917 penny and I am not sure if the numbers and some letters are smashed or doubled. I think I can see a line running down some numbers which make it look doubled. I can post pictures of mine later today or tomorrow. Thanks!

    Mine is in the bank box, I 'll try to remember to see if I can find it this week. The easiest pickup points is to look for 2 separated ends ( serifs) of the inner loop of the nine. Also the "7", The horizontal bar is doubled north south, so the top looks thicker than the vertical. There are many machine doubled on ebay, but quick look at these 2 points and it is not too difficult to tell.
