    The photograph is too little to see. my magnifying glasses is useless to read all the details on that picture. So far the value on that picture is ELEVEN CENTs. ONSE CENTAVOS.. 11 c.
    If you can try to photograph like below then it will help us to read all the details on that coins. Thank you.

    the chances of finding double dies on those are about the same as winning lottery, very few double dies are known for those years. the double die on dime are only found on proof, and your coin is not proof.

    For the record, the correct term is 'Doubled Die', not 'Double Die'. (One of my pet peeves.)

    People have been calling the cent a "penny" since the coin was first introduced in 1793. :)

    The U.S. Mint, in it's Annual Production Report refers to the one-cent coin as a "Penny"; who are we to do otherwise?

    For those that said the photos are too small, they're not. They're huge. Come on, all you have to do is hover your mouse over the photo. A sort of pop-up comes up. You click the photo, then expand it depending on your screen resolution. It's simple. The picture of the cent is larger than the size of the post above me.

    EDIT: I see what you think looks like doubling on the dime, and it looks like PMD.

    This is what the 1969S doubling should look like. Your's doesn't have that appearence.

    There isn't much special about a 1968D Dime.
    The metal value in your penny is $0.0058657
    The metal value in your dime is $0.022884

    Their combined value is $0.02874

    Or, you can take them to the local Kwik-E-Mart where they're worth $0.11

    Actually, the melt on the penny is $0.0269
    EDIT: lol, accidentally put two decimals.

    Izzy, there are actually at least 2 1969-S DDO, the -001 which is seen above and is quite splendid and the -002 which is much less apparent, but is more common. Unfortunately, since it is not in the Cherry Picker's guide, it is mostly unknown to those that are not Lincoln variety collectors. Yours is neither, but keep checking, and search out some threads on the forum concerning the coins you find "different". Knowledge is what sets the successful variety collector from the others.

    The second decimal is redundant (and incorrect).
