    Hi All,
    I've been looking through Canadian 1c coins I've accumulated and found these specimens- are they the "doubled date" that is listed for 1979? Looks like it is die abrasion doubling, but pretty extreme, none the less.

    Very nice example. There are actually a few different varieties of the doubled 1979, your's is a full "979".

    Thanks for the confirmation, Topher- I was surprised how easily I found them.

    Darkfenix- the pictures are a digital camera through a 10x loupe.

    Does anyone have a good online reference guide for 'value-ing' 1979 Double Die varieties? I cannot seem to find one, and Ebay listings are fairly scarce and all over the place. Thanks.
