I just got a group of coins back from ICCS today. Happily they ageed that a 2008 cent that I had submitted had a "double 8". Has anyone else seen this variety?

Also, feeling pretty darn pleased with the results from a 2011 roll. One roll yielded 3 MS 67s! Was this a complete lightning strike or have others found that the quality of 2011 cents is unusually high?

I hope one of those 2011 coins has my name on it... are they magnetic?

I havent noticed the 2008 double 8 but now I will have to go throught them all again hoping to find one :)

I have many very high grade 2011s both magnetic and non magnetic, I was surprised to see how nice most of them are, easily MS64 or 65

Sorry for the late response, I had to find the coin. I did find a 2008 double 8 but with your pictures it is hard to see if it is the same. Can you confirm?

I would say it is pretty much the same one.
