Thank Coop! as always great photos !

 

I don't see any doubling at all on the coin in the op.

 

yes,

It is still a nice find for sure!

 

Check the tops of the 55 and the tops of the mint marks. You can see the markers of the NW/SE lines between the 1 & 9 in the date. I found about 10 from that same roll with machine doubling. at least 6 in the images are different from coin to coin.

 

Respect??? And this post is what??

Coppercoin, you can't come here and tell the truth. The thread gets locked if it gets heated. You have to dance around the truth or get in trouble.

 

Im gonna have to agree. not much doubling at all on that coin despite even some great pics that were taken of it.

After really studying all the pics of that penny,I'd say it is a "POOR MANS DBL DIE" AT BEST.

Sincerely,

Richard

 

I do not do that.
Read Coppercoin post about JC that the only rezone I said a thing

 

Larry, trust me when I tell you this, you can speak your mind, here, "call 'em as you see 'em," choose whatever phrase suits you, there, however contentious that may be. As a matter of fact, I'll go as far as to say, when you lay down or compromise what you truly believe for the sake of avoiding the appearance of challenging another member, you rather do a disservice, not only to yourself, but to the entire community, as a whole. In other words, how do you think we learn, but by being challenged (as opposed to simply agreed with)? Doubt is the seed of thought, remember that. You just can't flame members, while you're at it. Hope that clarifies this matter, some...

 

Nice coin here, but what's all the fuss over MD?

 

I understand what you are saying eddiespin but honestly the moderator already stepped in at post 18 telling folks to only post about the coin. Didn't see any flames.

 

Well but that should be left to the discretion of the moderators, Larry, don't you think? They're the umpires. Let's keep the pitches somewhat within the strike zone, the posts somewhat reasonably-related to the subject. That's all that's about.

 

Ok, lets focus on the coin!:kewl:

It looks like a poorman's double die to me, not the major 1955 DD, but it is in great condition!!!!

 

Who died and left you moderator? J/K. Agree with your assessment, too, and that it's a fine-looking 55-D.

 

:whistle:

 

Nice spin but you missed it.

 

Missed it by a hair? :rolling:

 

Actually it was a hair over a mile.

 

There is no doublED die here,

There is no doublED die here, it only takes a die variety specialist about 4 seconds to see this - not only have we seen this coin many times going through BU rolls and circ rolls but we have the one that is a doublED die and it don't look like this - it's really as simple as that.
At some point you'all are going to have to trust us - we really do look at hundreds of thousands of Lincolns each year.

 

All I did in that reply was drew a distinction between a moderator cutting off a post for flaming and cutting one off not for flaming but rather for going off subject. I don't know, wasn't the latter the reason for the post-18 (i.e., the post you referenced) cut off? If that's the case, how is that "spin," pointing out that subtle distinction you evidently didn't catch when you made that reference? Unless I missed something, there (...in which case, correct me, by all means).
