<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AHS, post: 836661, member: 24065&quot;]Mechanical doubling? I will have to look into this and how it differs from the obvious doubling of 1916 or well known 1955 Lincoln.</p><p><br /></p><p>New to coins, new to board, but I guess my main question would be doubling on date vs lettering around the coin-in this case &quot;LIBERTY&quot; on the obverse of the 1916 Buff.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reading a article in Coin World, I noticed the price this coin can bring.&nbsp; Selling a collection for a friend with property tax on 3 homes and out of work, it would be a nice bonus.</p><p>&nbsp;I knew I had this coin. Of course,I wanted to locate and take a close look.</p><p>It seemed there was some doubling on the date OR perhaps it &#039;appeared&#039; after too long of look. (a common syndrome I would think)</p><p><br /></p><p>Looking later at a photo I noticed the obvious, strong doubling on the word &quot;LIBERTY&quot;. Searching the net I see this does NOT exist on the 1916/16. and took me to this post.</p><p><br /></p><p>I will post pic Monday and only wish the owner of this collection would have read this board~over 150 coins, nearly all polished/heavily scratched.(I pictured gramps in his old age, a monthly routine of keeping all his coins shiny) Tough news for someone who received over the phone quote of collection :headbang:</p><p><br /></p><p>Cheers,</p><p>AHS[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
