<p>[QUOTE="Tyler Graton, post: 2844708, member: 85787"]What books is referring to I believe, is the fact that when you say that things are unique when they aren't. It misleads people. Very simple. Don't call something that it's not. Reason? Well, lets just take this post. In the title you state "new 1991 double(d) die error Lincoln cent"</p><p>Okay so just say I am new, and I just found a 1991 cent that looks like it has a doubled die. I would go on google, type and type in "1991 double die error Lincoln cent" and most likely the first thing that will pop up is your post. That person will then look at your coin, and maybe see the same thing that's on your coin, and will most likely think they found a doubled die. This is something that I went through when I first started. And I too myself fought him about his opinion thinking he was just being ridiculous. I even told him to ignore me please. And he said No because he a good guy. He understands how difficult this hobby is. I remember this. I should have been listening to him. Even you thought it was a doubled die, so here is what I suggest. When you post things, you should just post the date, mint mark and say please help. If you are 100% sure it is what you are calling it, and know that for a fact, THATS when you should label it what it is. </p><p>No sense in calling something a doubled die when it's not. Misleads many people. And it's frustrating as you know when you think you have a doubled die because someone saw your post from google, and send it in for grading costing 30 bucks to find out that it's die deteration or plating issues.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
