[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2431094, member: 24314"]Need better photos. If you got this in the 1960's it is 100% genuine. My initial concern is the lump next to the bar on the reverse but I'll bet it just looks raised in your photo. This type of doubling is fairly common on Large cents; yet your coin is doubled to the max! Even looks like "Liberty" is affected. When these coins were made , the head design was put into the die separately from the date and letters. So the die that made your coin was hubbed twice. Therefore, many other coins like this exist. I do not have my Large cent book here but someone like [USER=1892]@SuperDave[/USER] can ID your coin easily by the die breaks on both sides. The coin looks like a 45 -50. Cannot tell for sure if it is original due to the color in your photo. My guess, no. There is also some corrosion (black spot) on the reverse. Value: Cannot help with that.[/QUOTE]
