Hey fellow collectors, is this a real double die? I didn't realize 1980 had a double die. I only kept the penny because it was in such good shape for being so old. Sorry the pictures aren't better.
Not from what I can see, unfortunately. There is a fairly significant variety known for the 80-P cent. Perhaps this is what you're thinking of? http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/38047
Note that the proper terminology for this occurrence includes the letter 'd' at the end of the first word, hence "doubled die". The term "double die" without the first word ending in 'd' is not proper numismatic terminology. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubled_die
