<p>[QUOTE=&quot;non_cents, post: 1891404, member: 30970&quot;]What I agree with is that really minor coins that require 30x+ magnification should probably not be listed because the average collector probably only has a 10-15x loupe. I&#039;m sorry I don&#039;t have the best memory, Rascal, so I didn&#039;t immediately know your definition of what &quot;minor&quot; doubled dies entails.</p><p><br /></p><p>As to &quot;you can&#039;t prove that this minor doubled die is a real doubled die because it is just a small dot, etc&quot;, when you find multiple coins spanning decades that show anomalies all southeast of Lincoln&#039;s eye, for example, and have overlays to confirm the strong possibility it is a doubled die, that is reason enough to believe that it is very much likely a doubled die. Is there a chance they are something else? Perhaps. But finding anomalies that are near identical in size and shape, that occur in the same small region on a coin, can be traced with die markers, match up with overlays, and span multiple decades, then that is a good deal of evidence to call a coin a doubled die.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
