[QUOTE="XanthenX, post: 3617641, member: 97195"]Some months ago I discovered a small date, zinc, 1982 Lincoln Cent with some obvious doubling on the reverse. At first I thought it may be machine doubling, then later; the lesser doubled die reported of this date. I had no shortage of trouble taking submission-worthy pictures.
