Ya think this is a double eye?

No.. That's a damaged eye.

 

I agree- dented eye.

 

You need to work on your ability of identifying damage versus something that was a mint error. Especially if it's as old as this 76 year old nickel.

 

Will do! Lol I also need to learn how decribe them!

 

There is so much you need to learn especially the difference between a Mint Error and a Variety.

Also, do you know what a Doubled Die variety would be? It's not and never is a double strike issue. It's doubling created during the creation on the hub when the image was created.
Here is some info -

Damage is just damage.. You will find it on thousands of coins. Don't assume it's a mint error or variety just because it looks different or strange. Patience is needed when learning. I've been collecting Mint Errors for 34 years and every once in a while I myself learn something new

 

Just sent all above reading material to my kindle. Looking forward to it. Thank you

 

Here is a great Mint Error website!

Due to the distance, it would be impossible for such as a DD, with no similar doubling of adjacent areas. since it was made in the old hubbing process. Some say it is possible with the new single squeeze hubbing. Jim

 

nope, and that is one that I have never cherry picked.

Altho, I do have a few 1943/2's
