[QUOTE="National dealer, post: 11466, member: 487"]I can't seem to get the detail when I upload this photo. Since our site is currently down, I can't link from there to here. The doubling on this coin appears to be along the lines of class 2 doubling. The first three digits of the date spreading towards the rim. Like I said, I am not positive about this coin.
