My week finds!! Any info on the 1967?? Doubled Chin/nose/motto/date?? And a 1959 D that looks like a Doubled MM??? Any info?? Thanks
So Not from Machine Doubling but more of a Die Wear Doubling? Still neat.. I have not come across one like this yet..
I agree with Lather...Die deterioration... and I have never found one like it before either. pretty cool
The '67 is machine doubling damage and the '59 is possibly a RPM. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/dietype.php?date=1959&die_mint=d&die_type=mm&page=0 http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/dateguide.php?date=1967 Here's the one I have;
Rockdude does know his stuff....He is for sure one of the few that I would really try and learn from...
The 67 is common mechanical/machine type doubling The 67 is common mechanical/machine type doubling. Learn esp. from the areas around the neck and chin - it is perfectly flat and shelve-like, always remember flat and shelve-like as if the metal as been scooted pushed or pulled means loose dies - when struck the dies flopped in the moment of strike the metal, device or image was scooted. The 59-D looks like a worn example of RPM-009 it's a D/D/D/D - the "D"'s are stacked up on each other - best way to view this is to look at the mint-mark from the south to north. If EDS (early die state) the steps of each "D" can be seen stacked on top of each other.
Thanks my hoarder friend.. I so many machine doubled coins that I am getting good at finding them..The '67 was just a bit stronger then I see most times.. I thought It looked more like Die wear.. I have found several that look like machine doubling, Flat, cut edges but have 2 and 3 sharp images, Is that common also with machine? I have been reading a bunch.. working at it.. Thanks for looking...
I will try to get a better shot of the 59 D... I think It does look like the RPM 009... If so.. Worth a few bucks.. Not much but a cool find.
thanks! maybe it is this one but I can not tell from photo. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1959&die_id=1959d1mm008&die_state=eds
No, no no the one I'm talking about is a quad D, just as I said stacked on top No, no no the one I'm talking about is a quad D, just as I said stacked on top of each other.
I caught that, All good.. Its not the 008 but the 009 .. And like I said .. a small fill in the "B" Thanks.. I need to get a scan but my system was attacked with super virus last night and I lost 89 files.. not sure how I am even running now.. Still know I am missing some apps.. And RIGHT NOW... No!! My wife system just got the same virus.. NETWORK!!!
