I just found a VERY NICE doubled 1986 D Lincoln Cent. I'd post a picture, but I only have a 3X magnifying glass and it's not cutting the mustard. I can see this one with regular vision - anybody know of any Double Die errors for 86 D pennies? I suppose there is a chance it could be machine doubled, but what is the difference. I have a 1995 Double Die (Liberty) and this 1986 D penny is MUCH doubled like that. When I was searching through the bag of pennies, I saw it right away with regular eyesight, so I'm hoping I have a pretty good error coin here, but I need some help. If my 10X loupe comes in the mail soon, I will try to get a picture. I may have to purchase one of those $70 microscopes that connects to a computer and can snap the picture... I'm really getting into coin collecting and the errors. I bet I've passed up a 1995 Double Die or two already because I didn't examine them closely enough. Even though you can a lot of times tell the error - you should check them with a magnifyer of some sorts. Any advice will be quite welcomed. Esky
Has anyone ever pointed you to http://coppercoins.com/ If you like double dies, RPM's, etc. on cents, you need to spend some time there. This guy wrote the book, 2 in fact.
