Message:: [QUOTE="Neal, post: 8299082, member: 43872"]What I see in this thread is a difference in definitions of what constitutes "doubling" and what constitutes "collectible." I definitely see the very minor "doubling" in the OP's coin, but how it should be defined is not my call, really.  To each his own, as long as one does not become deceptive when trying to sell.  Because it is reproduced on every coin struck by that die, it is different from the MD of a vibrating die.  Still, while I consider such minor doubling, even if under the old two-press method, interesting, and might even put one in a 2x2, I would never pay a premium for it, nor burn too much time looking for it.  But if someone else sees it differently and considers it treasure, who am I to say no?  Personally, I would never pay a premium for any zincoln, because of the danger of it's corroding away in the future.  But if someone else enjoys them, that's great![/QUOTE]
