<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Midas, post: 48698, member: 2761&quot;]For the 1969-S:</p><p><br /></p><p>Mechanical or strike doubling of the mintmark is common in the 1969-S and should not be confused with the double-die variety.&nbsp; Remember, the mintmark was hubbed into the dies and the mintmark punched in at a <u>later</u> time.&nbsp; Therefore a true 1969-S double die will <b>NOT</b> show doubling on the mint mark as well.&nbsp; Doubling should be on the 1969, IN GOD WE TRUST and LIBERTY...but not the S mint mark.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.coinworld.com/images/NewCollector/errors/g-1969s.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>For the 1995:</p><p><br /></p><p>Doubling is most noted on LIBERTY and to a smaller degree IN GOD.&nbsp; If your 1995 is filled in, that is common for coins as sometimes grease fills into dies as they are minted.&nbsp; You really don&#039;t see doubling/shadowing for the 1995 date in a true 1995 DDO.</p><p><br /></p><p>Referenced from Charles D. Daughtrey&#039;s&nbsp; book <i>&quot;Looking&nbsp; through Lincolns&quot; </i> and <i>&quot;The Complete Guide to Lincoln Cents&quot;</i> by David W. Lange.</p><p><br /></p><p>As GD states, &quot;Knowlege...Share it!&quot;&nbsp; Hope that helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
