[QUOTE="Good Cents, post: 3903660, member: 100720"]POST #1 of 2 Hi Everyone, As I've written before I'm relatively new to coin and bullion collecting (and am enjoying it a lot!). A friend who has done a lot for me asked me for some help. Her mother-in-law passed away and left some coins in bag which her husband is much too overwhelmed to deal with. She knows nothing about coins and asked me for help because she thinks I know more than her (just slightly more than nothing! ) and she doesn't know how to begin dealing with them. There are about 60 US coins from 1917 - 1974. I looked up each coin in the Red Book, graded it to the best of my (in)ability and entered all the info into a spreadsheet. But I have a bunch of questions and would appreciate any and all help and advice. 1. There is a 1974 Ike Dollar where on the Reverse the letters "T" & "E" in "United" have weak definitions relative to all the other letters. I've attached pictures (though it's not as visible in the pictures as in real life). Is this an error of any sort? 2. I can't really tell clearly on some of the pictures in the Red Book what a Double Die looks like. So I took pictures of the coins that had them listed in the Red Book. One of them is a 1942 Quarter with the pictures below. 3. Again with Double Dies, she has 3 Dimes from 1964 and that's another year where there could be Double Dies so I've included pictures below.
