    Pardon my ignorance but I know nothing about error coins.
    I received this in with a lot of stuff I purchased.

    The 2x2 said 1968 S Cent DBIDie.

    Can anyone help?

    What is a "DBI Die"? Do you mean 'DBL Die' (doubled die)?

    That's what it said on the flip. Is it double die?

    No. Looks like strike doubling, IMO, and there aren't any listed DDO's for this date (or at least that I can find).

    There are six Doiubled dies listed at Coppercoins.com to compare your coin to.

    I'm not sure. The photos don't really show much and I was ready to say no , but the tail of the 6 is interesting. It definitely seems to show something and it does look in the photos like a rounded doubling with a "notching" at the point of the 6 that goes down to the field. So I with what I have to work with I would say maybe.
