<p>[QUOTE="huntsman53, post: 155130, member: 1242"]Due to work, selling coins at the Flea Market and Gold Prospecting, it is hard to find time to catalog and 2x2 many of my error coin finds! However, with the upcoming Labor Day Holiday weekend looming, I decided that I needed to get some coins ready for the Flea Market. About six months ago I found about 20 coins that either had RPM errors or were Doubled Dies and placed them in a small plastic ziplock bag. On Thursday, I got these out for further inspection, cataloging and 2x2'ing for the Flea Market. Upon inspecting the coins, I came across a 1913-D which was fairly easy to tell that it was an RPM ("D" over "D" Mintmark) but after closer inspection, I found that the coin has a "D" over "D" over inverted "D" Mintmark. I cannot find this error listed anywhere and have no idea as to what it might be worth. Considering the value of other Lincoln Wheat Cents with only 2 Mintmarks one of which is inverted, then this coin should rank high on the value chart. My next step is to try to get it into Coneca for authentication and then have it graded and certified by PCGS or NGC.</p><p><br /></p><p>Note: Both the Secondary "D" and Inverted "D" are slightly East of the Primary and the Secondary virtually sits on top of the Inverted "D".
