<p>[QUOTE="das7771, post: 406576, member: 8900"]I purschased some s mint pennies about a year ago. Last night I finally started to go through them and noticed something. I found a 1954 s mint penny in at least ms-60 condition with some toning. Under a small hand held magnifying glass it seemed that the s was doubled. This morning I put it under my microscope to get a better look and to me it looks like it is really a double s. I am very amateur to coin collecting and by no means am I very good at this, but I do enjoy it. The top tip of the s cleary has two tips to it, and when the s curves to the front while moving down you can see a second part to it that appears to be some what of a black shadow. It does not appear to be caused by a worn die but an acutal double strike. I do not have pics at the moment but I will have some up tonight. If this is authentic does any one know what the value of this would be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
