1982 Penny Double Die on the D?

Here is another, I will try not to post too many in 1 day. This was supposed purchased at auction for a large sum due to the D mint mark being doubled. I am interested if this is truly a double die and what the value may be?

Also, is it possible for a mint mark to be in the wrong place? or is the mint mark part of the same die that makes the coin?

No. That is a plating issue. Zinc Rot is starting.

Here is the information

Mintmarks wouldn't be doubled with the rest of the coin until 1990. The mintmarks were hand-stamped into the dies, not included in the hubs.

 

The correct numismatic terminology is actually Doubled die.. Explained here

So could this be a mint mark on the edge of this one? I thought the mint mark was part of the same die.

 

No. Damage. Sorry

 

Just damage, I hope you can return it., Jim

 

May be these are all just hopeful but I will try a couple more. This is 1990 half that looks like it may have a 1

 

This is a mint condition penny 2017 P that has bumps all over it

 

1984 penny with doubling on the 8?

 

1910 S with 10 missing?

 

Plating bubbles. Nothing major.

 

Struck through grease. Nothing major.

 

Die Deterioration doubling. Not a true Doubled Die issue. Considered worthless doubling.

 

Not a numeral 1. Looks like a Die Chip. Cool.

 

Oh well. My son wanted this lot, I think he got screwed out of $300. It was part of an estate lot I bought locally before all the lock down and we never had a chance to look through the coins, probably about 300 coins in total.

 

Nope. Looks like a plating problem.
