<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2836175, member: 36230&quot;]I don&#039;t think anyone could ask or dream of a more reasonable approach and/or response than that, Michael; kudos!</p><p><br /></p><p>You&#039;re right; we do get a LOT of pointless error/variety questions, but they usually come from those dreaming of easy riches, or those who think there&#039;s nothing more fun in life than trolling a coin forum. However, a minority of similar questions are asked by people, such as yourself, who are simply trying to learn, so please, if having trouble understanding, don&#039;t hesitate to ask. Do understand, though, that some people don&#039;t see any value in minor varieties. Some collect ancient coins, while others classic American, or Canadian, or world, or moderns, etc, etc, and is nothing more than a &quot;<i>different strokes for different folks</i>&quot; kind of thing; there is no right or wrong.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, I see no indication of the coin being a doubled die, but I&#039;m also having difficulty seeing it well enough to say for sure. Often, on coins displaying larger serifs, looking for splits/notching can be more helpful than focusing on clear doubling, especially since there are so many minor varieties out there. The site Rick linked is a good reference indeed, but may I ask if you&#039;ve visited Wexler&#039;s site (<a href="http://doubleddie.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://doubleddie.com/" rel="nofollow">http://doubleddie.com/</a>) to familiarize yourself with the different types of doubling, the minting process, how dies are made, etc? If not, there is tons of excellent information there that I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll find helpful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
