Before you start hunting for errors & varieties, you have to learn how dies are made and how the coins are produced from those dies.

Here is a link to a few articles which may help to get you started.

There are other sites that provide valuable information, but you must understand that it is a long, slow learning process. It is not something that you learn overnight.

I'm not seeing it.

 

Thank You Mr.Chris

 

Thank You my problem is i look over these coins and swear like the little marks are signs of something and see how bold the E Pluribus Unum is bold on reverse i thought bold like that is a form of doubling a minor form

 

Yes, there are certain types of fat letters that are doubled dies, but that doesn't mean that all are doubled dies. Some are simply the result of worn dies.

To be perfectly honest, I'm a firm believer that if you can't see a doubled die with a 10x loupe, max magnification, then it isn't worth keeping. There are hundreds and hundreds of meaningless doubled dies that just make collecting these varieties a waste of time.

For more information on doubled dies and worthless doubling, check out Wexler's Die Varieties and Lincoln Cent Resource.

Should I respond to everyone answers ?
I'll wait for more questionable answers, to the question at hand ..

 

Thank You... i will check out the worthless doubling in the Wexler's guide so i will try not to post more worthless coins

 

@COINWILD ...”extra thickness” is a term used on coins after the single squeeze method was employed by the mint, generally speaking.

That doesn’t mean it didn’t happen pre-single squeeze. Compare with known examples like with Wexler.

@cpm9ball ...as he stated...these are minor doubling and there are thousands of examples that will burn a lot of time researching the coins you find. I know...I and many others have done it.

It comes down to what gives you the most interest. But if you do find a minor variety, and you want to sell it, then you have to find that special person who collects it. That can be harder than researching the coin.

Happy Hunting!...Spark

 

Thank You for your information and the term extra thickness relating to the single squeeze method by the mint which can also create thick letters on coin and is not considered doubling.

 

Class 6 doubling, is what your coin has ........

 

Also, this coin is not from the single squeeze era ...

 

This is why I, study all varieties ( class 1-9 ) ...

 

Can you give me a reference to what this Class X doubling refers to. At a coin shop I frequent he has pages for sale of foreign coins an older collector has marked as Class 1, Class 2, etc. for doubling and for clashes. I've found some easily visible clashes among the coins, but don't understand the Class thing. Is this correct https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubled_die

 

Yes, I neglected to say that, glad you picked up on it...and that extra thickness varieties are considered doubling...they are included in the listings at Wexler!.

Rick, your expertise on class doubling is truly amazing...Spark

 

That info is correct, on the classes of doubled dies .
Only missing class 9, in that info ..

 

so...what is class 9?
