<p>[QUOTE=&quot;beef1020, post: 3101464, member: 24544&quot;]Let me do the leg work for you:</p><p><br /></p><p>&#039;Shortly after the various obverse doubled die cent varieties were produced that year, the Lincoln cent master die for 1972 failed and a new one had to be produced.&nbsp; Clearly the Mint was having problems that year with the hubbing process as was evidenced by the many doubled die varieties produced.&nbsp; Those problems carried over to the second master die that was produced for the Lincoln cents that year.&nbsp; That second master die was produced with minor doubling.&nbsp; It is estimated that the doubled master die was created somewhere around April or May of 1972.&nbsp; All of the Lincoln cents struck by working dies that descended from the doubled master die show this minor doubling.&nbsp; The doubling can be seen on the letters of IGWT, the letters of LIBERTY, and very slightly on the date.&nbsp; Since 60% to 70% of all Lincoln cents for 1972 show this doubling, <b>it is far too common to have any value</b>.&nbsp; This includes 1972 D-Mint, S-Mint, and proof coins produced that year.&#039;</p><p><br /></p><p>From the previously mentioned website(scroll to bottom):</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.doubleddie.com/384301.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.doubleddie.com/384301.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.doubleddie.com/384301.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
