<p>[QUOTE="51Caveman, post: 5418144, member: 88840"]I'm not new to coin collecting but I am fairly new to looking for errors or <i>abnormalities. </i>Been collecting off and on for probably 50+ years. Took a couple decades off when I was serving in the US Military but have recently (last couple of years) gotten back into it. I have some pics below but one thing I have particular trouble with is coin <b>doubling.</b> Double Dies, machine doubling, etc. I've watched a ton of videos and read some articles on the topic but I'm still confused! I've seen folks who say if it isn't already listed somewhere by some "Expert" i.e. Wexlars (Sp) or Variety vista, etc, then it either doesn't exist or it's not true "doubling". So I'm going to try to insert some pics. Maybe someone could help me to understand if I have a "doubled" coin. Also, my Avatar is a pic of a Ike dollar that looks like he is "crying". Is this an error or something else? I've had this coin for many years.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1235119[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1235120[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1235121[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1235122[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
