<p>[QUOTE=&quot;foundinrolls, post: 79471, member: 4350&quot;]Hi,</p><p>To answer part of the question.&nbsp; There are doubled dies galore !&nbsp; Some of the dates included on Memorial cents (that I can think of off the top of my head) include, 1959, 1959 D, 1960, 1960 D, 1962, 1962 D, 1963, !964 , 1966, 1968 D, 1969 S, 1970, 1970 S, 1971, 1972, 1972 D, 1972 S, 1980, 1982, 1983 (obverse and reverses), 1984, 1984 D, 1985, 1986, 1989, 1994, 1995, and 1997.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are not mechanically doubled coins, they are legitimate doubled dies.&nbsp; Some are on the obverse, some are on the reverse.&nbsp; Several of these dates have several varieties. For example there are 3 (that I know of) different doubled dies on 1983 Obverses. At least 2 on 1984 obverses and so on.&nbsp; There are 2 varieties of 1964 Doubled Die Reverses as well. The list goes on!</p><p><br /></p><p>You need a good hand lens to presort, then a good loupe to look for the rest of the stuff.&nbsp; The tough part is learning the difference between mechanical doubling and real die doubling.</p><p><br /></p><p>For lighting, I use a small lamp with a 100 watt bulb.</p><p><br /></p><p>Have Fun,</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
