    Found this 1965 while sorting my grandpas old bucket of change. I think it is a double die because of the second rim at the top and some shadow at the top of the letters. Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry pics are a little blurry look at the 9, and then the top of the rim... if that helps. 20190507_095035.jpg 20190507_095108.jpg

    The '2nd rim' has nothing to do with a doubled die.

    What you see is a very very minor, and common,
    mis-aligned obv. die.

    And the doubling is MD - mechanical or 'ejection' doubling.

    Neither item is an error on the coin.

    I agree.. MD Mechanical Doubling

    Not a Doubled Die variety

    thanks for the responses! I'm assuming it's not worth anything, but it is a good one to start my collection with.
