    Hello I believe I have found a 1969S Double Die obverse? Reverse? I would like to certify it but first need a few opinions on the matter I will post photos to the best of my ability.

    Sorry. I'm not seeing any doubling.

    Hi there, bring the loupe all the way to the camera lens. Then move the camera closer to the coin until it comes into focus. It'll get us clearer photos.

    Personally, I do not need any clearer photo's to tell me that the OP's coin is NOT a coin with any significant doubling much less the implied 1969-S DDO which it certainly is not.

    I also expect that, given the newness of the member AND the fact that machine doubling is quite prevalent on the 1969-S Series of coins, that any doubling which is being observed has a 99.99999% probability of being machine doubling.

    Whether or not it is significant and whether or not it is a DDO can be two different things. Some of the coins Rick pulls out as DDOs, I'm certain I discard. Instead of rushing to tell a newbie what they have is nothing without even getting a good photo, I prefer to help them form better questions, take better photos, and learn on this forum. It is most likely nothing, but let's not be so quick to dismiss it without being sure. Also, a couple of camera pointers could make all the difference.

    Okay, the photos are better, but why are they so tiny in terms of data size? I'm going to assume your camera takes photos bigger than 200 kilobytes? When you go to upload, upload them as full image. That might make the difference.

    The correct terminology is Doubled Die.. Not Double. Big difference!
