    dont know much about doubling, but now i found one. guess ill have to study up. ok so the forehead and nose, along with the r and possibly the e (regina) and d (d.g)look funny. is that something behind the a? also in elizabeth some of the letters look plam tree'd. cant tell but to the right of the queens neck, as well as bottom left look like they might also be doubled. anyone know why it doesnt affect all of the image, just parts.

    also the 7. is it pointed? not sure if its specific years where this matters.

    although i am not the expert and did check into ddo. i found this second 1972 with the exact same doubling on the forehead and nose in the same box.(only been through 3 rolls so far).to me, this means something was up with the die. i thought maybe all 72's were like this so i tried to find examples online. all i could find was a normal 72. anyone know if these were common? or did i just defy every available odd that two would be in the same box of assorted circulated?
