<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gotchange, post: 2101003, member: 73688&quot;]I am afraid I may not be much help. I can not tell to much with the way the light is there. </p><p>I find it interesting that they (coin grading folks) say the lettering has a small med or large spread that constitutes doubling. I still do not know how one would be able to tell. However, when I&#039;m going through older cents I see that some sport a spread. I have yet to find a good double in cents still.. Found several small doubling in other coinage though. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; recently (within the last six months) I got a better understanding of what to look for in double dies, it is a directional thing, if the coin is doubling say counter clockwise then all of the doubling would be in the same direction.. Wexlers die and variety has a real good article on the doubling, the direction they take,&nbsp; how it comes to be and their system used to identify,</p><p>&nbsp;I do not have all of the identification down.</p><p>&nbsp;I do know after I read it I had a better understanding of double dies. I hope this helped. May and may not have helped. Happy double dies to you...<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
